Fundamental Limits to Single-Photon Detection

Propp, Tzula (University of Oregon, 2020-12-08)

Quantum mechanics cements the intimate relationship between the nature of light and its detection. Historically, quantum theories of photodetection have generally fallen into two categories: the first tries to determine ...
Hamiltonian Formulation For Single/few Photon Detection

Biswas, Saumya (University of Oregon, 2022-02-18)

Fully quantum mechanical models for device models of single photon detectors have recently been developed. Detection of single/few photons in both inanimate devices and biological eyes have the universal structure of ...
