What is it about?

This is a design of a very low-noise transimpedance amplifier (TIA) for a novel multi-pixel CMOS photon detector which performs secondary electron (SE) detection in the scanning electron microscope (SEM).

Why is it important?

This paper presents a low-noise transimpedance amplifier that is highly suitable to be used as a critical constituent block for the CMOS photon detector which aims to take over the role of photomultiplier tube in SE detection in the SEM. Solid-state approaches have recently been reinvigorated for improving certain aspects of SE detection in scanning electron microscopy and this work has supported and contributed to the trend.

Perspectives

A good design of transimpedance amplifier for secondary electron detection in the SEM.
