The performance of long-wave infrared (LWIR) quantum well (QWIP) detection systems is seriously affected by the dark current of the detectors. Tiny variations in the focal-plane temperature of the devices cause fluctuations in the dark current, which in ...

Turning off the Lights: How Dark is Dark Matter? [PDF]
We consider current observational constraints on the electromagnetic charge of dark matter. The velocity dependence of the scattering cross-section through the photon gives rise to qualitatively different constraints than standard dark matter scattering ...

Temperature Sensors Integrated into a CMOS Image Sensor
In this work, a novel approach is presented for measuring relative temperature variations inside the pixel array of a CMOS image sensor itself. This approach can give important information when compensation for dark (current) fixed pattern noise (FPN) is

Defects formation on the surface of Si-substrates during thermal sputtering of gold
Silicon photodetectors, in particular p–i–n photodiodes, are widely used as sensors of optical radiation. With technological advances, the requirements for the parameters and reliability of these elements of solid-state electronics are increasing sharply,

Carrier scattering approach to the origins of dark current in mid- and far-infrared (terahertz) quantum-well intersubband photodetectors (QWIPs) [PDF]
A carrier scattering approach is taken in an analysis of the affect on the dark current of extending the operating wavelength of conventional bound to continuum quantum-well intersubband photodetectors. It is found that both the sequential tunneling and

Similarities Between Proton and Neutron Induced Dark Current Distribution in CMOS Image Sensors [PDF]
Several CMOS image sensors were exposed to neutron or proton beams (displacement damage dose range from 4 TeV/g to 1825 TeV/g) and their radiation-induced dark current distributions are compared.

Particle Dark Matter Constraints from the Draco Dwarf Galaxy [PDF]
It is widely thought that neutralinos, the lightest supersymmetric particles, could comprise most of the dark matter. If so, then dark halos will emit radio and gamma ray signals initiated by neutralino annihilation.
