Abstract

A method is provided of forming a light sensing arrangement for use in a light sensor. The method comprises tiling a plurality of individual light sensing elements on a carrier, each element having a notch formed in an edge thereof, the notch being adapted to provide space, when the elements are tiled together, for an electrical connection to be made between the carrier and a surface of the element arranged to faced away from the carrier. Each element may comprise Silicon Photomultiplier (SPM) circuitry.
