The KET pilot line project POLIS is aimed at maintaining and furthering the innovation capability of CMOS image and optical sensors in Europe. An existing ST CMOS high volume production line, unique in Europe, will serve as the basis of the proposed project. The strategy behind POLIS lies in the development of specific technological modules and to implement them at pilot line level on the existing production line. POLIS will also enable the development of several key demonstrators representative of potential final products serving multiple applications. More specifically, in order to support imaging expansion into new markets (automotive, consumer, medical, security), the project proposes to focus on the following application fields: sensors capturing photons beyond visible wavelength range, focusing on the limits of spectral range (X-ray/Gamma and thermal IR/THz), sensors using Time of Flight (ToF) technology and light emitters based on OLED on silicon technology for micro-displays.
