Abstract :
Amplification and multiplying techniques for low noise solid state photon detectors are described. Detector - readout hybrid structures are reviewed and the switched source-follower direct readout circuit is discussed. Performance data on large scale devices is given and application to ionizing event measurement is discussed.
