Solid-State Charge Detector ID: 2019-044

A revolutionary solid-state charge detector that operates across a wide pressure range and requires minimal power.

Technology Overview

This technology represents a significant advancement in charge sensing systems, moving away from the traditional reliance on electron multipliers that need high vacuum and voltage to operate. The solid-state charge detector is designed to function efficiently from high vacuum to atmospheric pressure and operates on a mere 1.8-V supply voltage. This innovation not only makes the technology suitable for portable, low-power applications but also significantly broadens its usability across various environmental conditions.

Key Advantages

• Operates over a wide pressure range, from high vacuum to 760 torr (atmospheric pressure)
• Requires only a 1
• 8-V supply voltage, enhancing its suitability for low-power applications
• Optimized charge amplifier design for low noise performance across the 1-10 KHz flicker noise spectrum

Problems Addressed

• Dependency on high-vacuum, high-voltage electron multiplier-based detectors
• Limited portability and high power consumption of traditional charge sensing systems
• Operational limitations in varying environmental conditions due to strict pressure requirements

Market Applications

• Portable, low-power electronics requiring charge detection
• Environmental monitoring equipment operable in a wide range of atmospheric conditions
• Scientific research instruments needing low noise and high sensitivity charge detection
• Commercial and industrial applications where traditional high-vacuum systems are impractical
