A sensing device includes a substrate, two chips, and a shielding structure. The two chips are respectively defined as an emitting chip and a receiving chip. The emitting chip can emit a sensing light beam, the receiving chip can receive the sensing light beam, and the two chips are fixed in position on the substrate at intervals. At least one of the chips is electrically connected to the substrate through at least one wire, and a position where the wire is connected to the substrate is located between the two chips. The shielding structure is formed on the substrate. The shielding structure is located between the two chips, and the shielding structure covers the wire and a portion of the chip connected to the wire. Compared with the conventional photo-plethysmography sensor, the sensing device has the advantage of a smaller size.

A display apparatus having a noncontact input function is provided. The display apparatus has a first function of detecting, with a light-receiving device, light irradiated from a light source outside a display portion and blocked by a pointing object to recognize the position pointed by the pointing object, and a second function of detecting, with the light-receiving device, light irradiated from a light source inside or outside the display portion and reflected by the pointing object to recognize the position pointed by the pointing object. The display apparatus can operate by switching the first function and the second function in accordance with the intensity of the light irradiated from the light source outside the display portion.

A photoconductive transducer intended to generate or detect waves in the terahertz frequency domain or in the picosecond pulse domain is provided. The transducer comprises a three-dimensional structure that includes, in this order, a first planar electrode, an array of nano-columns embedded in a layer of resist and a second planar electrode parallel to the first planar electrode.

The height of the nano-columns as well as the thickness of the resist range between 100 nanometres and 400 nanometres. The width of the nano-columns is between 100 nanometres and 400 nanometres, the distance between two adjacent nano-columns is between 300 nanometres and 500 nanometres, the nano-columns are made of a III-V semiconductor. The second electrode is transparent, so as to allow the transmission of a laser source towards the photo-absorbing nano-columns.
