Longer example sentences

Shot noise main Shot noise is a type of electronic noise that occurs when the finite number of particles (such as electrons in an electronic circuit or photons in an optical device) is small enough to give rise to statistical fluctuations in a signal. (44 words)

In the case of photon detection, the relevant process is the random conversion of photons into photo-electrons for instance, thus leading to a larger effective shot noise level when using a detector with a quantum efficiency below unity. (39 words)

However this reduction in shot noise does not apply when the current results from random events at a potential barrier which all the electrons must overcome due to a random excitation, such as by thermal activation. (36 words)

Example sentences (20)

When these are absent, however, optical detection is said to be "photon noise limited" as only the shot noise (also known as "quantum noise" or "photon noise" in this context) remains.

But since the strength of the signal itself increases more rapidly, the relative proportion of shot noise decreases and the signal to noise ratio (considering only shot noise) increases anyway.

Shot noise main Shot noise is a type of electronic noise that occurs when the finite number of particles (such as electrons in an electronic circuit or photons in an optical device) is small enough to give rise to statistical fluctuations in a signal.

However, shot noise is temperature and frequency independent, in contrast to Johnson–Nyquist noise, which is proportional to temperature, and flicker noise, with the spectral density decreasing with the frequency.

Shot noise also occurs in photon counting in optical devices, where shot noise is associated with the particle nature of light.

Of course there are other mechanisms of noise in optical signals which often dwarf the contribution of shot noise.

Other types of noise, such as shot noise cannot be removed as they are due to limitations in physical properties.

Shot noise is white noise.

Advertentie

Because the electron has such a tiny charge, however, shot noise is of relative insignificance in many (but not all) cases of electrical conduction.

However, shot noise in the raw data is prominent in the reconstructed images and areas of high tracer uptake tend to form streaks across the image.

However this reduction in shot noise does not apply when the current results from random events at a potential barrier which all the electrons must overcome due to a random excitation, such as by thermal activation.

In electronics shot noise originates from the discrete nature of electric charge.

In the case of photon detection, the relevant process is the random conversion of photons into photo-electrons for instance, thus leading to a larger effective shot noise level when using a detector with a quantum efficiency below unity.

Now with this small current viewed on this time scale, the shot noise amounts to 1/10 of the DC current itself.

Properties Electronic devices Shot noise in electronic circuits consists of random fluctuations of the electric current in a DC current which originate due to fact that current actually consists of a flow of discrete charges ( electrons ).

Shot noise is distinct from voltage and current fluctuations expected in thermal equilibrium; this occurs without any applied DC voltage or current flowing.

Shot noise is easily observable in the case of photomultipliers and avalanche photodiodes used in the Geiger mode, where individual photon detections are observed.

Shot noise is produced by electrons in transit across a discontinuity, which occurs in all detectors.

Shot noise is the dominant source in most receivers.

Shot noise is the main reason Fourier transform spectrometry was never popular for ultraviolet (UV) and visible spectra.
