Simulation of a Neutron Detector for Real Time Imaging Applications
Monte Carlo Method is used to simulate a double layer gadolinium-amorphous silicon thermal neutron detector. The detector fabricated in pixel array configuration has various applications including neutron imaging. According to the simulation results, a detector consisting of a gadolinium (Gd) film with thickness of 2-4 ~m, sandwiched properly with two layers of sufficiently thick (-30 ?µm) hydr...
متن کاملReal-time phase tracking in single-photon interferometers.
A new technique for phase tracking in quantum cryptography systems is proposed that adjusts phase in an optimal way, using only as many photon counts as necessary. We derive an upper bound on the number of photons that need to be registered during phase adjustment to achieve a given phase accuracy. It turns out that most quantum cryptosystems can successfully track phase on a single-photon leve...
متن کاملMonolithically integrated heterodyne optical phase-lock loop with RF XOR phase detector.
We present results for an heterodyne optical phase-lock loop (OPLL), monolithically integrated on InP with external phase detector and loop filter, which phase locks the integrated laser to an external source, for offset frequencies tuneable between 0.6 GHz and 6.1 GHz. The integrated semiconductor laser emits at 1553 nm with 1.1 MHz linewidth, while the external laser has a linewidth less than...
متن کاملPhase Frequency Detector Using Transmission Gates for High Speed Applications
In this paper a new phase-frequency detector is proposed using transmission gates which can detect phase difference less than 500ps. In other word, the proposed Phase-frequency Detector (PFD) can work in frequencies higher than 1.7 GHz, whereas a conventional PFD operates at frequencies less than 1.1 GHz. This new architecture is designed in TSMC 0.13um CMOS Technology. Also, the proposed PFD a...
متن کاملReal-Time Heterodyne Interferometry with Correlation Image Sensor
Optical heterodyne interfereometry (HI) (R. Dändliker, 1973; N.A. Massie, 1979) is an interferometric technique that employs two interfering beams of slightly different frequencies. Interference of these beams yields a time-varying sinusoidal intensity signal whose frequency equals the difference between the frequencies of the two beams. The signal and frequency are called beat signal and beat ...
