Geiger-mode avalanche photodiodes (GM-APDs) are highly sensitive light detectors, capable of detecting single photons.

Researchers optimise ultraviolet avalanche photodiodes by fine-tuning electric field and absorption layers, increasing ...

In a groundbreaking achievement, scientists have successfully captured the precise shape of a single photon, marking a ...

Theoretical physicist Alex Lupsasca is pushing for a space telescope to glimpse the thin ring of light that is thought to surround every black hole.

New device emits photons in telecom fiber band from the start, so it avoids a separate converter that can waste photons.

In a study that was recently published in the IEEE Journal of Quantum Electronics, Dr. Jonathan Schuster from DEVCOM Army Research Laboratory, United States, and his team have developed a numerical ...

Developed by Eta Space, the proof-of-concept satellite is part of the development of in-orbit cryogenic refueling stations ...

An international research team has published a comprehensive review in the IEEE Photonics Journal summarising key photonics ...
