ABSTRACT:
A high-sensitivity photometer/radiometer uses a single-pixel charge-injection-device (CID) light-sensitive sensor, and associated circuitry for: non-destructively reading-out the sensor charge level; for summing signals proportional to the charge level signal; and for then displaying the level. With cooling of the CID sensor, the sensitivity of the photometer can be sufficient to read incident flux levels on the order of several photons per second.
