A thermal management design to cool an advanced sensor package while ensuring structurally safe assembly and operation. Team 15 partnered with Ball Aerospace Tactical Solutions to create a compact ...

Unlike in conventional Geiger mode operation, for which the avalanche current is independent of the incident photon number, the self-differencing APD has a linear-mode-like behaviour; that is ...

The modules consist of the MPPC device (with 1600, 400 or 100 individual Geiger mode APD pixels), current-to-voltage converter circuit, high-voltage power supply circuit, high-speed comparator circuit ...

We use a type of silicon avalanche photodiode in which the lateral electric ... across which a large uniform electric field is generated. In the Geiger mode, for which the breakdown electric ...

BOULDER, Colo., Sept. 10, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Ball Aerospace has signed an exclusive license agreement to be the sole manufacturer of the Geiger-mode avalanche photodiode (GmAPD) light detection ...

Ball Aerospace, a unit of Ball CorporationBLL, has signed an exclusive license agreement to manufacture the Geiger-mode avalanche photodiode (GmAPD) light-detection and ranging (LIDAR) cameras for ...

Princeton's sensor is based around what is known as a Geiger-mode avalanche photodiode (APD) which is the component that actually detects the photons that bounce back off objects around the sensor.

The avalanche photodiode working in Geiger mode is cooled down to -100°C. This series has been especially designed for applications in which asynchronous photon detection is essential. In contrast to ...

The voltage of the reverse-bias means that avalanche photodiodes typically operate in linear mode but biasing the photodiode above breakdown voltage can allow it to function in Geiger mode.

The new devices utilize a Geiger-mode avalanche photodiode structure for ultra-low-level light detection, and a two-stage thermoelectric cooler, operating down to -25°C. The inclusion of a TE cooler ...

Single photon detection module (spectral range from 900 to 1150nm ), based on InGaAsP/InP avalanche photodiode operating in Geiger mode. The id400 single photon detection module consists of a ...
