Abstract
A system for detection of a photon emission generate by a device of an integrated circuit, and methods for detecting the same are provided. The system includes a device space configured to include the device. The system further includes an electrical probe proximate the device space and configured to couple to the device. The electrical probe is configured to induce the device to generate the photon emission. The system further includes an optical fiber having a first end proximate the device space and a second end spaced from the first end. The first end is configured to receive the photon emission generated by the device. The optical fiber is configured to transmit the photon emission from the first end to the second end. The system further includes a detector in communication with the second end of the optical fiber and configured to detect the photon emission transmitted by the optical fiber.
