Photodetection and Measurement: Maximizing Performance in Optical Systems (repost)

Photodetection techniques are becoming increasingly necessary for electronics design work This reference provides a practical "rules of thumb" approach to making accurate optical measurements with equipment commonly found in labs and companies. Considers the full chain of equipment: photodetectors, amplifiers, LED sources, electronic drives, basic optics, interference screens, and data acquisition systems How to make use of the simplest detector in every situation Noise reduction techniques Building in stability
