Abstract
Jones. Furthermore, we highlight emerging applications in wearable health monitoring, autonomous vision systems, and secure optical communications that exploit the unique conformability and tunability of organic semiconductors. Finally, we outline persistent challenges in stability, scalability, and dark-current suppression, proposing a roadmap for performance-driven material and architectural optimization, demonstrating how performance-driven optimization can unlock the full potential of large-area, conformal infrared sensing technologies.
