Optical Radiation Detectors

E-Book Overview

A comprehensive, integrated treatment of the capabilities and limitations of optical detectors. Introduces radiometry, noise sources, and detector physics as background to the more complex discussions of photon detectors, thermal detectors, and charge transfer arrays of detectors. Problems at the end of each chapter are student tested and serve as an example of how the benefit of classroom experience is incorporated into the book.
