Synopsis:

Selected measurement methods of physical electronics and optics include typical measurements of photon and ion beams in modern physical laboratory experiments. Namely: Measurements of extremely small electrical currents. Measurements of extremely low light intensities. Synchronous detection and gated integrators. Measurements of extremely high light intensities. Nanosecond and picosecond pulse techniques. Measurement of nanosecond, picosecond and femtosecond pulses. Detection in IR, UV, XUV, SXR, XR and HXR radiation bands. Multichannel analysis. Radiation spectrometry. Measurement of charged particles velocity, mass and ionisation state. Measurements of extremely high electrical currents and magnetic fields. Imaging and metrology of micro and nano objects together with optical surfaces characterisation are also included.
