    摘要: An optical sensing apparatus is provided. The optical sensing apparatus includes a substrate, one or more pixels supported by the substrate, where each of the one or more pixels includes an absorption region, a field control region, a first contact region, a second contact region and a carrier confining region. The field control region and the first contact region are doped with a dopant of a first conductivity type. The second contact region is doped with a dopant of a second conductivity type. The carrier confining region includes a first barrier region and a channel region, where the first barrier region is doped with a dopant of the second conductivity type and has a first peak doping concentration, and where the channel region is intrinsic or doped with a dopant of the second conductivity type and has a second peak doping concentration lower than the first peak doping concentration.

    摘要: A laser detection device can be used to protect an integrated circuit. The device includes a detection cell having a buried channel of a first conductivity type extending in a substrate of the integrated circuit. The substrate is of a second conductivity type. The detection cell also has a first electrical connection coupling a first point in the buried channel to a supply voltage rail, and a second electrical connection coupled to a second point in the buried channel. A detection circuit is coupled to the second point in the buried channel via the second electrical connection and adapted to detect a fall in the voltage at the second point.

    摘要: An apparatus, including a quantum dot graphene field effect transistor configured to operate such that photons incident thereon cause electron-hole pairs to be formed; a connector element connected to the back gate of the transistor; a switch element as an output switch to provide an output for a current flowing through the transistor. The transistor is configured to be back gate biased via the connector element connected to the back gate such that the electrons or the holes formed are trapped in an at least one quantum dot and respectively the holes or the electrons migrate to the channel of the transistor. A drain to source voltage connected to the transistor causes a current proportional to the charge of the holes or electrons trapped at the quantum dots by the electrons or holes to flow in the channel.
