In order to help his friend prepare for a talk at DEFCON this weekend, [Craig] built an IR photodiode amplifier circuit. The circuit extended the detection range of the hack from a few inches to a few ...

A drawback of solar panels is that they require sunlight to generate electricity. Some have observed that for a device on Earth facing space, the chilling outflow of energy from the device can be ...

Building a photodetector that works across a range of applications does not have to be complicated. In this post, we will break down a universal design concept that is flexible, practical, and ready ...

This application note discusses the design considerations, schematic and component selection to achieve a gamma-photon radiation detector. The design is composed of a PIN photodiode, four low-noise op ...

(a) The schematic working mechanism of the integrated spectrometer. Conjugated-BIC photonics and combined waveguides are planarly integrated with perovskite photodiode arrays. Monochromatic light with ...

In a study that was published in Advanced Materials, Prof. Shibing Long and his colleagues from the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) proposed a ...
