Lecture

Photon Detection: Efficiency and Coating

Description

This lecture covers the principles of high energy photon detection, including the relationship between light detection and energy levels, the efficiency of photon detection, and the use of Charge-Coupled Device (CCD) detectors. It also discusses the importance of Quantum Efficiency, the impact of different types of CCD detectors on photon detection efficiency, and the role of Anti-Reflective coatings in minimizing light reflection. Additionally, it explores the concept of Signal to Noise ratio in CCD detectors and the use of CMOS and Infra-Red detectors in photon detection.
