Neural Imaging Using Single-Photon Avalanche Diodes
Introduction: This paper analyses the ability of single-photon avalanche diodes (SPADs) for neural imaging. The current trend in the production of SPADs moves toward the minimumdark count rate (DCR) and maximum photon detection probability (PDP). Moreover, the jitter response which is the main measurement characteristic for the timing uncertainty is progressing. Methods: The neural imaging pro...
متن کاملSingle Photon Source with Individualized Single Photon Certifications
As currently implemented, single-photon sources cannot be made to produce single photons with high probability, while simultaneously suppressing the probability of yielding two or more photons. Because of this, single photon sources cannot really produce single photons on demand. We describe a multiplexed system that allows the probabilities of producing one and more photons to be adjusted inde...
متن کاملProbing single-molecule dynamics photon by photon
We present the theoretical rationales for data analysis protocols that afford an efficient extraction of conformational dynamics on a broad range of time scales from single-molecule fluorescence lifetime trajectories. Based on correlation analyses, a photon-by-photon approach on one hand provides the highest time resolution, whereas a minimal-binning method on the other hand is most suitable fo...
متن کاملPhoton correlation in single-photon frequency upconversion.
We experimentally investigated the intensity cross-correlation between the upconverted photons and the unconverted photons in the single-photon frequency upconversion process with multi-longitudinal mode pump and signal sources. In theoretical analysis, with this multi-longitudinal mode of both signal and pump sources system, the properties of the signal photons could also be maintained as in t...
متن کاملStrong Photon-Photon Interactions at the Single-Photon Level
Engineering light at the single photon level is a long-standing goal in physics. In this thesis, we investigate optical nonlinearities at the single photon level orchestrated by an optical cavity. We demonstrate an all-optical transistor where one stored ‘gate’ photon controls the propagation of a ’source’ light beam. The system is based on EIT and a highcooperativity cavity. Each ’gate’ photon...
