Near-infrared imaging with solution-processed organic–inorganic hybrid photodiodes is demonstrated for the first time. The hybrid bulk-heterojunction photodiodes contain PbS nanocrystalline quantum dots as sensitizers for the detection of light of up to 1.8 µm in wavelength, have a minimum lifetime of one year, and external quantum efficiencies of up to 51%.
