Microscopy Effects on Images

Detectors: 

Array detectors:

Cameras, CCD's EMCCD's Back thinned CCD's, CMOS, SCMOS 

Quantum

These efficiency

detectors measure photons and produce electrons in each pixel. The pixels are then readout as a serial list of values representing the photon intensity at each location.

 


Quantum Efficiency

The quantum efficiency is a ratio between the number of photons hitting a pixel to the number of electrons in the well
