Fringe Visibility Estimators for the Palomar Testbed Interferometer [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
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 ...

Impact of Phase‐Change Memory Flicker Noise and Weight Drift on Analog Hardware Inference for Large‐Scale Deep Learning Networks

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, 2022
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]

open access: yes, 2010
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]

open access: yes, 2015
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.

Photon Counting Error Rates in Single-Bit and Multi-Bit Quanta Image Sensors

open access: yesIEEE Journal of the Electron Devices Society, 2016
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

open access: yesSensors, 2016
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]

open access: yes, 2015
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 ...

Ultra-Low Power, Process-Tolerant 10T (PT10T) SRAM with Improved Read/Write Ability for Internet of Things (IoT) Applications

open access: yesJournal of Low Power Electronics and Applications, 2017
In this paper, an ultra-low power (ULP) 10T static random access memory (SRAM) is presented for Internet of Things (IoT) applications, which operates at sub-threshold voltage. The proposed SRAM has the tendency to operate at low supply voltages with high
