RESUMO

Negative-feedback avalanche diodes (NFADs) provide a practical solution for different single-photon counting applications requiring free-running mode operation with low afterpulsing probability. Unfortunately, the timing jitter has never been as good as for gated InGaAs/InP single-photon avalanche diodes. Here we report on the timing jitter characterization of InGaAs/InP based NFADs with particular focus on the temperature dependence and the effect of carrier transport between the absorption and multiplication regions. Values as low as 52 ps full-width at half-maximum were obtained at an excess bias voltage of 3.5 V and an operating temperature of around -100°C.

RESUMO

A new quantum random number generation method is proposed. The method is based on the randomness of the photon emission process and the single photon counting capability of the Quanta Image Sensor (QIS). It has the potential to generate high-quality random numbers with remarkable data output rate. In this paper, the principle of photon statistics and theory of entropy are discussed. Sample data were collected with QIS jot device, and its randomness quality was analyzed. The randomness assessment method and results are discussed.

RESUMO

Aldose reductase (AR) is an enzyme implicated in the development of diabetes complications among them diabetic retinopathy. Erythrocyte AR activity was measured in control and diabetic Meriones shawi, a type-2 diabetic model. We noticed an increase of AR activity in diabetic Meriones by comparison to controls. Olive leaf aqueous extract and oleuropein were tested for their inhibitory potential on AR activity. Both exerted a partial in-vitro inhibition effect which was higher with the olive leaf extract. The ex-vivo protective effect of oleuropein was tested in photoreceptors rod and Mcône retinal cells of Meriones shawi in hyperglycaemic conditions. Mixed retinal cells were cultured at 25 mM glucose for 5 days and treated with oleuropein. Cell viability was assessed using MTT test and trypan blue exclusion dye. Rod and Mcône Photoreceptors were characterised by immuno-cytochemistry. Oleuropein protected retinal cells against the toxic effect of glucose by improving the viability of photoreceptors.
