1 Mid term – Laser Swarm Optical Receiving Payload Single-Photon Detection -Photonmultiplier tube -Single Photon Avalanche Diode(SPAD) Wavelength Estimation -Atmospheric transmittance -Wavelength ratio

2 Mid term – Laser Swarm Optical Receiving Payload Single-Photon Detection - Convert light(photons) to measurable quanlity(electronical V or I) -Multiple ways -Photonmultiplier tube -SPAD -Quantum dot(under developed)

3 Mid term – Laser Swarm Photonmultuplier tube Typically 1000 to 2000v used

4 Mid term – Laser Swarm SPAD Single Photon Avalanche Diode -Based on p-n junction -Reversed biased voltage -Sensing avalanche current -Small size, less power

5 Mid term – Laser Swarm Atmospheric Absorption Bands

6 Mid term – Laser Swarm Wavelength estimation General sufficient wavelength range 400nm to 900nm Atmospheric transmittance Vs. Photon detection efficiency Wavelength ratio R = transmittance^2*efficiency
