Photonic Detection (PD)

This group involves the detection of photons as received from images, data links and experimental spectroscopic studies, to mention a few. Within its scope, it is involved in the design, fabrication and testing of single and arrayed detectors. Detector materials, structures and readout circuitry needed to translate photons into electrical signals are considered by this group. Also included in this group is the integration of components such as lens, cold shields and readout electronics into cameras. Research into higher efficiency, lower noise and/or wavelength tunability is included here. Additionally, techniques to mitigate noise and clutter sources that degrade detector performance are within the purview of this group. In the imaging area, camera design, componentry and circuitry are considered.
