This lecture covers the combination of systems for radiation detection, from light collection to signal amplification, including the use of different semiconductor materials and detectors like photomultiplier tubes, hybrid photodiodes, and silicon photomultipliers. It also discusses the principles behind avalanche photodiodes, silicon photodiodes, and silicon photomultipliers, highlighting their characteristics and applications in radiation detection.
