Transparent filter with 10,000-pixel power turns phone into pro camera | The study utilizes a transparent, one-centimeter-square plane featuring a 2D semiconductor—a thin film composed of only a few atoms.


UCLA's transparent device enables low-power nonlinear optical computing with ambient light, unlocking myriad potential applications.

The cutting-edge device leveraging two-dimensional semiconductor technology is capable of utilizing ambient light to function as an advanced “smart filter”. The team claims the filter helps to significantly enhance the caliber of photographs captured by inexpensive cameras. This compact device, measuring 0.4 by 0.4 inches (1 by 1 centimeter), features a transparent chip with an ultra-thin thickness, comprised of a 100-by-100 pixel array constructed from just a few atoms.
