Geiger-mode quad-cell array for adaptive optics

Published in:
CLEO-QELS, 2008 Conf. on Lasers and Electro-Optics/Quantum Electronics and Laser Science Conf., 4-9 May 2008.

Summary

We report an array of Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensors using high-fill-factor Geiger-mode avalanche detector quad cells hybridized to all-digital CMOS counting circuits. The absence of readout noise facilitates fast wavefront sensing at low light levels.

Broadband (200-1000 nm) back-illuminated ccd imagers

Summary

Improved and stable blue/UV quantum efficiency has been demonstrated on 2Kx4K imagers using molecular-beam epitaxy to create a thin doped layer on the back surface. Quantum efficiency data on thick (40-50 pm) imagers with single and dual-layer anti-reflection coatings is presented that demonstrates high and broadband response. Measurements of the optical point-spread response show the devices to be fully depleted with good response across a broad spectrum, but interesting features appear in the near-IR as a result of deeply penetrating light being scattered off the surface structure of the CCD.
