Abstract: An apparatus including an array of field-effect transistors, each field-effect transistor including a channel, source and drain electrodes, and a gate electrode configured to enable the flow of electrical current to be varied, the gate electrode separated from the channel by a dielectric material configured to inhibit a flow of electrical current between the channel and gate electrode, wherein the gate electrode of each field-effect transistor is connected in parallel to the gate electrodes of the other field-effect transistors in the array, and wherein a respective two-terminal current-limiting component is coupled to each gate electrode such that, in the event that a defect in the dielectric material of a particular field-effect transistor allows a leakage current to flow between the channel and gate electrode of that field-effect transistor, the respective two-terminal current-limiting component limits the magnitude of the leakage current.

Abstract: An apparatus comprises a transparent substrate (3), at least one sensor (5) for the detection of electromagnetic radiation (31), and for each sensor a corresponding mirror having a reflective surface (11). The reflective surface (11) is shaped so that electro-magnetic radiation (31) incident on the transparent substrate (3) at a specific angle, passing through the transparent substrate (3) and being reflected by the reflective surface (11) is directed towards the sensor (5). The sensor (5) comprises a two dimensional material like graphene and may be a quantum dot functionalised graphene field effect transistor. The present invention enables the incident electromagnetic radiation (31) to be focussed onto the at least one sensor (5) without the use of additional optical components like lenses or microlenses. This may enable focussed images to be obtained by the apparatus.

Abstract: According to aspects of the present disclosure there is provided an apparatus and method for sensing. The apparatus includes a sensor circuit which includes a first output terminal, a second output terminal and a sensor that is provided in a bridge circuit arrangement. The sensor circuit is configured such that a sensor measurement can be determined based on a voltage difference between first and second output terminals. The apparatus is configured so as to prevent a current from being able to flow from the first output terminal through the sensor circuit to the second output terminal.
