Broadcom AFBR-S4N66P014M NUV-MT Silicon Photomultiplier is utilized for ultra-sensitive precision measurements of single photons. The single-channel SiPM is based on the NUV-MT technology, which integrates improved photo-detection efficiency (PDE) with a decreased dark count rate and crosstalk compared to the NUV-HD technology. The device has a SPAD pitch of 40µm. By tiling multiple Broadcom AFBRS4N66P014M […]

Broadcom’s single-silicon photo-multiplier is best suited for the detection of low-level pulsed light sources

The Broadcom® AFBR-S4N33C013 is a single-silicon photo-multiplier (SiPM) used for ultra-sensitive precision measurement of single photons. The active area is 3.0 mm × 3.0 mm. A high packing density of single chips is achieved using through-silicon-via (TSV) technology and a chip-sized package (CSP). Larger areas can be covered by tiling multiple AFBR-S4N33C013 CSPs almost without any edge […]

A new microwave radiation sensor with the sensitivity of up to 1 single photon, has been developed by research funded by the US Army and various pristine universities. This sensor is a microwave bolometer that can improve thermal imaging, radio communications, and RADAR by 100,000 times. The Army, in part, funded the work to fabricate this bolometer by taking advantage of […]

Building an Internet of Things based system has always been an exciting art that usually comes with one major challenge to overcome – Connectivity. A smart system or an even intelligent system that collects data without having any network capability can’t be called an IoT system and it’s that device connectivity that gives it the […]
