Figure 2: Photo-voltaic response curve
Figure 2 shows the pixel response curve in linear response mode. This curve is the
relation between the electrons detected in the pixel and the output signal. The
resulting voltage-electron curve is independent of any parameters. The voltage to
electrons conversion gain is 13.5 µV/electron.
Note that the upper part of the curve (near saturation) is actually a logarithmic
response.
