Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a technology for detecting a quantity of light, which enables measurement in a wide dynamic range from a quantity of weak light to a quantity of intense light in a light quantity detecting apparatus for detecting a quantity of light.SOLUTION: In the light quantity detecting apparatus, a detection signal of a photon count type photo-detector is A/D converted. A threshold-value processing is carried out such that if the A/D converted detection signal is equal to or higher than a preset threshold value, the detection signal is transmitted to the subsequent photon counting circuit as it is, and if the detection signal is equal to or lower than the threshold value, a preset reference value is transmitted to the subsequent circuit. In the photon counting circuit, the number of photons or the quantity of light that has entered the photon count type photo-detector is obtained from the area of the wave shape of the detection signal obtained until the measurement of the quantity of light finishes.

A three-dimensional framework comprises at least a first, a second, and a third connection means which are connected to the at least first, second, and third light sensor, respectively. The first, the second, and the third connection means are configured to align the at least first, second, and third light sensor along a first, second, and third face of a polyhedron-like volume, respectively, such that the sensor arrangement encloses the polyhedron-like volume. The invention also relates to a method for operating the sensor arrangement.
Abstract:
A method and a system for measuring an optical asynchronous sample signal. The system for measuring an optical asynchronous sampling signal comprises a pulsed optical source capable of emitting two optical pulse sequences with different repetition frequencies, a signal optical path, a reference optical path, and a detection device. Since the optical asynchronous sampling signal can be measured by merely using one pulsed optical source, the complexity and cost of the system are reduced. A multi-frequency optical comb system using the pulsed optical source and a method for implementing the multi-frequency optical comb are further disclosed.
