Broad-range light-detection systems, including components and methods
of use thereof. These systems may include apparatus and methods for detecting light
with increased speed and/or detection efficiency, particularly in applications
involving repeated analysis of the same sample and/or successive analysis of different
samples, and particularly when the sample or samples have a wide range of light
intensities. These systems also may include apparatus and methods for detecting
light with increased accuracy over a broad range of intensities. These systems
also may include vapparatus and methods for automatically scaling detection range
to improve detection based on the intensity of the detected light.
