What I think would be an interesting version would be a chip with four layers with the bottom one being a very thick capturing mainly IR. It could be made perform quite a bit better in IR than current conventional cameras even when IR converted (as the photodiodes don't go deep enough to the silicon).

Yes, that might perhaps even improve the differentiation of 3 primary colors, wouldn't it?

Though I doubt it's worth the effort from economical point of view, but hey, Foveon is a hobby proyect anyhow the way I see it

Everything is a tradeoff.
