We demonstrate polarization-dependent photo-response enhancement in metamaterial-coupled quantum dots-in-a-well infrared detectors. A gold split-ring resonator metamaterial layer was patterned by electronbeam lithography in the detector aperture. In this integrated structure, the detector spectral response is given by the convolution of the metamaterial field enhancement and the original detect...

The Hi·Art II Helical TomoTherapy (HT) unit is equipped with a built-in onboard MVCT detector used for patient imaging and beam monitoring. Our aim was to study the detector stability for treatment beam measurements. We studied the MVCT detector response with the 6 MV photon beam over time, throughout short-term (during an irradiation) and long-term (two times 50 days) periods. Our results show...

We present an analytical model that allows to calculate the current response of a spatially modulated light CMOS detector (SML-detector) and compare this response with the response of a traditional CMOS photodetector. It is shown that the SML detector already yields a three orders of magnitude faster response time than a traditional CMOS detector in a 0.25 m CMOS technology. This response time ...

We present two software packages developed to support detector R&D studies for the International Linear Collider. LCDG4 is a full-detector simulator that provides energy deposits from particles traversing the sensitive volumes of the detector. It has been extensively used within the American ILC community, providing data for algorithm development and detector optimization studies. DigiSim model...

phase sensitive detector described here has two principal applications: a- to produce a d.c out put proportional to- the amplitude of an incoming a,c signal and indicate, by the outut polarity, the phase of the signal with respect to an internal reference. b- to detect the presence of a signal of known phase and frequency which would otherwise be lost in «background noise» and to measure its am...
