Photon Counting Histogram Expectation Maximization Algorithm for Characterization of Deep Sub-Electron Read Noise Sensors

open access: yesIEEE Journal of the Electron Devices Society, 2023
We develop a novel algorithm for characterizing Deep Sub-Electron Read Noise (DSERN) image sensors. This algorithm is able to simultaneously compute maximum likelihood estimates of quanta exposure, conversion gain, bias, and read noise of DSERN pixels ...

Monolayer graphene bolometer as a sensitive far-IR detector [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this paper we give a detailed analysis of the expected sensitivity and operating conditions in the power detection mode of a hot-electron bolometer (HEB) made from a few {\mu}m$^2$ of monolayer graphene (MLG) flake which can be embedded into either a ...

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.

A New Bound on Excess Frequency Noise in Second Harmonic Generation in PPKTP at the 10^-19 Level [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We report a bound on the relative frequency fluctuations in nonlinear second harmonic generation. A 1064nm Nd:YAG laser is used to read out the phase of a Mach-Zehnder interferometer while PPKTP, a nonlinear crystal, is placed in each arm to generate ...

Analytical Modeling and TCAD Simulation of a Quanta Image Sensor Jot Device With a JFET Source-Follower for Deep Sub-Electron Read Noise

open access: yesIEEE Journal of the Electron Devices Society, 2017
A novel quanta image sensor (QIS) jot device with a CMOS compatible junction-field effect transistor (JFET) source follower (SF) is introduced. The device is proposed to further reduce the read noise of QIS jots and ultimately realize a read noise of 0 ...

Low-Frequency Noise Phenomena in Switched MOSFETs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
In small-area MOSFETs widely used in analog and RF circuit design, low-frequency (LF) noise behavior is increasingly dominated by single-electron effects.

Statistical analysis of read-back signals in magnetic recording on granular media

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2020
The comprehensive simulation of magnetic recording, including the write and read-back process, on granular media becomes computationally expensive if the magnetization dynamics of each grain are explicitly computed. In addition, in heat-assisted magnetic

Review of Hillel Schwartz. 2011. Making Noise: From Babel to the Big Bang and Beyond. Brooklyn: Zone Books

open access: yesCurrent Musicology, 2012
Hillel Schwartz’s Making Noise: From Babel to the Big Bang and Beyond is not merely a text to be read; it’s also an object to be grappled with. One must create space for it, adopt a proper reading posture to accommodate it, and listen to it—both to the ...

A sensing circuit for single-ended read-ports of SRAM cells with bit-line power reduction and access-time enhancement [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Radio Science, 2011
The conventional sensing scheme of single-ended read-only-ports as integrated in 8T-SRAM cells suffers from low performance compared to double-ended complementary sensing schemes.
