摘要：Methods of optimizing the diameters of nanowire photodiode light sensors. The method includes comparing the response of nanowire photodiode pixels having predetermined diameters with standard spectral response curves and determining the difference between the spectral response of the photodiode pixels and the standard spectral response curves. Also included are nanowire photodiode light sensors with optimized nanowire diameters and methods of scene reconstruction.

主权项：1. A method comprising: providing or obtaining at least a first nanowire device comprising at least a first pixel and a second pixel, wherein the first pixel comprises a first nanowire comprising a first predetermined material and a first diameter, the first pixel configured to detect light of a first predetermined wavelength, and the second pixel comprises a second nanowire comprising a second predetermined material and a second diameter, the second pixel configured to detect light of a second predetermined wavelength; determining a first error difference between a first spectral response of the first nanowire to the light of the first predetermined wavelength and one or more standard spectral response curves; determining a second error difference between a second spectral response of the second nanowire to the light of the second predetermined wavelength and the one or more standard spectral response curves; and determining a total error difference of the first nanowire device at least from the first and second error differences; wherein at least one of the first predetermined wavelength and the second predetermined wavelength is an infrared wavelength.
