With the rapid aging of Japanese society, how to increase quality of life (QoL) while controlling rising medical expenses has become an urgent issue. To solve this difficult issue, the acquisition and utilization of biological information using new technologies such as wearable devices is more expected. In particular, self-care and home medical care, in which patients and their families are responsible for their own health, are considered as one of the way to solving the issues of a super-aging society. Indeed, wearable sensors that can constantly monitor health conditions and home-use blood pressure monitors with communication functions are being introduced to the market one after another to prepare for the advent of a self-care era.On the other hand, when designing a new insurance system or incentive system using biometric information from wearable sensors, it is important issue how to confirm whether data measured at home is the patient's own. Furthermore, the risk of patient mix-ups must be reduced as more wearable devices come to be used in hospitals and welfare facilities in the future. Therefore, measuring vital signs simultaneously with biometric authentication of the user is an urgent issue.We have developed a sheet-type image sensor that enables high-resolution and high-speed reading. This sheet-type image sensor can take the high-resolution image of fingerprints and veins used for biometric authentication. In addition, the same sheet-type imager can measure the pulse wave which is one of the vital signs, and its distribution.Although there are many reports of sheet-type image sensors, it has not been achieved both high-resolution imaging and high-speed readout, and static biometric data and dynamic vital signs cannot be measured by one sheet-type image sensor. This is because high-sensitivity photodetectors and high-speed switching elements could not be integrated on a polymer substrate without damaging of the switching elements.The developed sheet-type image sensor is fabricated by densely integrating a high-efficiency readout circuit using an active matrix of a low-temperature polysilicon thin film transistor and a photodetector that uses a highly efficient organic semiconductor as a photosensitive layer. The resolution of the image sensor achieves 508 dots per inch (dpi) required for fingerprint authentication, and the organic photodetector consists of bulk hetero structure organic layer which has high photosensitivity to near infrared light with a wavelength of 850 nanometers (external quantum efficiency of 50% or more). It it easy to integrate the sheet-type image sensor into equipment and attach it to curved surfaces due to the thickness of the polymer base material is 10 micrometers, and the total thickness of the sheet-type image sensor is 15 micrometers (Figure 1). By developing a process technology that integrates photodetectors and thin-film transistors without damage to each other, it has become possible to realize a sheet-type image sensor that achieves both high-resolution imaging and high-speed reading.Evaluation of vein and fingerprint images taken by this sheet-type image sensor showed that the contrast difference of the veins was less than 5% compared to images using a general CMOS imager. We confirmed that the conformable imager has high image quality equivalent to that of conventional CMOS imagers.Since the sheet-type image sensor is thin and bendable, it can be easily integrated into wearable devices, and it is possible to measure health condition and perform biometric authentication at the same time. As a result, it is expected that prevention of “spoofing” and patient from being mixed up.
