Examples
-
The problem is that when allegations are levelled like this there's obviously got to be some level of "detectivity" going on (mmm nougat) by us interneters.
-
The material has a 'detectivity' level comparable to amorphous silicon, which is widely used in large-area electronics applications, such as liquid-crystal displays (LCDs).

Lin plans to continue honing this new technology and use gold to boost the QDIP's detectivity, by both widening the diameter of the surface holes and more effective placement of the quantum dots.
-
By leveraging the unique properties of nanoscale gold to "squeeze" light into tiny holes in the surface of the device, the researchers have doubled the detectivity of a quantum dot-based infrared detector.
-
With some refinements, the researchers expect this new technology should be able to enhance detectivity by up to 20 times.
