Transducer for reading information stored on an optical record carrier, single photon detector based storage system and method for reading data from an optical record carrier

摘要

Transducer ( 24, 240, 241 ) for reading information stored 1n an optical record carrier ( 1 ), comprising at least one solid-state single photon detector, for example a single photon avalanche diode ( 24 ) for acquisition of a 2D or 3D image of at least a portion of the optical record carrier.
