Low light detection

On-demand webinar

Single-photon detectors and detection: SiPM, SPAD, SNSPD, PMT, TES, and photon-resolving camera technologies

Photodetectors capable of detecting single photons are in demand for modern applications, including quantum computing, time-of-flight LiDAR, and dark matter detection.

Article

By the numbers: Photon counting and number resolution

There is more to single-photon detectors than resolving single photons. Getting the most out of these devices requires a deeper understanding of quantum mechanics and detector design.
