Diffractive triangulation of radiative point sources [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We describe a general method to determine the location of a point source of waves relative to a two-dimensional active pixel detector. Based on the inherent structural sensitivity of crystalline sensor materials, characteristic detector diffraction ...

Linear-Logarithmic CMOS Image Sensor with Reduced FPN Using Photogate and Cascode MOSFET

open access: yesProceedings, 2017
We propose a linear-logarithmic CMOS image sensor with reduced fixed pattern noise (FPN). The proposed linear-logarithmic pixel based on a conventional 3-transistor active pixel sensor (APS) structure has additional circuits in which a photogate and a ...

Programmable active pixel sensor to investigate neural interactions within the retina [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Detection of the visual scene by the eye and the resultant neural interactions of the retina-brain system give us our perception of sight. We have developed an Active Pixel Sensor (APS) to be used as a tool for both furthering understanding of these ...

Subthreshold Operation of Photodiode-Gated Transistors Enabling High-Gain Optical Sensing and Imaging Applications

open access: yesIEEE Journal of the Electron Devices Society, 2020
In optical sensors and imagers, high gain that leads to high sensitivity and high signal to noise ratio (SNR) is often desirable. One popular approach is avalanche photomultiplication initiated by impact ionization in an avalanche photodiode or similar ...

Modeling the Performance of Single-Bit and Multi-Bit Quanta Image Sensors

open access: yesIEEE Journal of the Electron Devices Society, 2013
Imaging performance metrics of single-bit and multi-bit photo-electron-counting quanta image sensors (QIS) are analyzed using Poisson arrival statistics. Signal and noise as a function of exposure are determined.

Influence of Satellite Sensor Pixel Size and Overpass Time on Undercounting of Cerrado/Savannah Landscape-Scale Fire Radiative Power (FRP): An Assessment Using the MODIS Airborne Simulator

open access: yesFire, 2020
The fire radiative power (FRP) of active fires (AFs) is routinely assessed with spaceborne sensors. MODIS is commonly used, and its 1 km nadir pixel size provides a minimum per-pixel FRP detection limit of ~5–8 MW, leading to undercounting of AF pixels ...

First bent wafer-scale sensor in truly-cylindrical geometry for the ALICE ITS3 detector [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2022
An upgrade of the three innermost layers of the ALICE ITS, intended to be installed during the LHC Long Shutdown 3, is under development. The detector concept foresees the usage of curved, wafer-scale Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors.
