Abstract
A method and a light detector that includes (i) a photon to electron converter a photon to one or more photoelectrons; (ii) a photoelectron detection circuit that includes a photoelectron sensing region; (iii) a chamber; (iv) a bias circuit that is configured to supply to the light detector one or more biasing signals for accelerating a propagation of the one or more photoelectrons within the chamber and towards the photoelectron sensing region; (iv) a photoelectron manipulator that is configured to operate in a selected operational mode out of multiple operational modes that differ by their level of blocking, (v) a controller that is configured to control the photoelectron manipulator based on a feedback about the at least one of (a) the photon, (b) the one or more photoelectrons, (c) a previous photon and, (d) previous one or more photoelectrons.
