Investigation of random telegraph signal in two junction layouts of proton irradiated CMOS SPADs [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 This paper focuses on the understanding of the Random Telegraph Signal (RTS) in Single-Photon Avalanche Diodes (SPAD). We studied the RTS of two different SPAD layouts, designed and implemented in a 150-nm CMOS process, after proton irradiation.

Random telegraph signal (RTS) in the Euclid IR H2RGs [PDF]
High Energy, Optical, and Infrared Detectors for Astronomy VIII, 2018 Euclid is an ESA mission to map the geometry of the dark Universe with a planned launch date in 2021. Euclid is optimised for two primary cosmological probes, weak gravitational lensing and baryonic acoustic oscillations. They are implemented through two science instruments on-board Euclid, a visible imager (VIS) and a near-infrared photometer ...
