Fringe Visibility Estimators for the Palomar Testbed Interferometer [PDF]
Visibility estimators and their performance are presented for use with the Palomar Testbed Interferometer (PTI). One operational mode of PTI is single-baseline visibility measurement using pathlength modulation with synchronous readout by a NICMOS-3 ...

The analog AI core concept is appealing for deep‐learning (DL) because it combines computation and memory functions into a single device. Yet, significant challenges such as noise and weight drift will impact large‐scale analog in‐memory computing. Here,

On the use of electron-multiplying CCDs for astronomical spectroscopy [PDF]
Conventional CCD detectors have two major disadvantages: they are slow to read out and they suffer from read noise. These problems combine to make high-speed spectroscopy of faint targets the most demanding of astronomical observations. It is possible to

Photon-noise limited sensitivity in titanium nitride kinetic inductance detectors [PDF]
We demonstrate photon-noise limited performance at sub-millimeter wavelengths in feedhorn-coupled, microwave kinetic inductance detectors (MKIDs) made of a TiN/Ti/TiN trilayer superconducting film, tuned to have a transition temperature of 1.4~K.

Noise analysis for CCD-based ultraviolet and visible spectrophotometry [PDF]
Full-text not yet available due to publisher embargo.We present the results of a detailed analysis of the noise behavior of two CCD spectrometers in common use, an AvaSpec-3648 CCD UV spectrometer and an Ocean Optics S2000 Vis spectrometer. Light sources

Photon Counting Error Rates in Single-Bit and Multi-Bit Quanta Image Sensors
Photon or photoelectron counting error (bit error) rates are determined for single-bit and multi-bit quanta image sensors (QISs). The results are also applicable to CMOS image sensors with deep sub-electron read noise.

Particle and Photon Detection: Counting and Energy Measurement
Fundamental limits for photon counting and photon energy measurement are reviewed for CCD and CMOS imagers. The challenges to extend photon counting into the visible/nIR wavelengths and achieve energy measurement in the UV with specific read noise ...

A solid state spin-wave quantum memory for time-bin qubits [PDF]
We demonstrate the first solid-state spin-wave optical quantum memory with on-demand read-out. Using the full atomic frequency comb scheme in a \PrYSO crystal, we store weak coherent pulses at the single-photon level with a signal to noise ratio $> 10 ...
