This paper presents a wearable optical health monitoring device embedding a monolithic sensor chip with newly designed pixels, and an optical module optimized for photoplethysmography (PPG). The monolithic optical sensor at the heart of this device implements an array of novel pixels designed specifically for PPG and featuring a quantum efficiency (QE) as high as 85 %.
