Silicon Photomultiplier Detectors for Low-Light Detection
Low-light detectors and multidetector imagers enable a wide range of applications, including cell imaging, biodiagnostic instrumentation, semiconductor wafer inspection, particle counting, nuclear medicine, radiation detection and quantum cryptography, as well as low-light imaging applications such as security cameras and ranging lidar systems. These applications rely on the ability of the sensor to detect light levels that range from a single photon (less than an attowatt) to millions of...
