Image Characteristics of Model Photodetectors—IIFootnote

Pages 170-174 | Received 23 Mar 1968, Published online: 23 Jul 2016
 

Abstract

Further theoretical studies are made concerning the relation between the basic structural properties of an idealized model photodetector and its imaging characteristics. The detector is here considered to consist of a random spatial distribution of equally-sized and independent elements with a prescribed sensitivity distribution. The gain and the noise characteristics for this detector-type are evaluated, enabling the Equivalent Quantum Efficiency to be determined. The latter is compared with that found in the case where the detector has a regular spatial distribution of elements.
