Development of Gated Pinned Avalanche Photodiode Pixels for High-Speed Low-Light Imaging
This work explores the benefits of linear-mode avalanche photodiodes (APDs) in high-speed CMOS imaging as compared to different approaches present in literature. Analysis of APDs biased below their breakdown voltage employed in single-photon counting mode is also discussed, showing a potentially interesting alternative to existing Geiger-mode APDs. An overview of the recently presented gated pi...
متن کاملModelling of High Quantum Efficiency Avalanche Photodiode
A model of a low noise high quantum efficiency n+np Germanium Photodiode utilizing ion implantation technique and subsequent drive-in diffusion in the n layer is presented. Numerical analysis is used to study the influence of junction depth and bulk concentration on the electric field profile and quantum efficiency. The performance of the device is theoretically treated especially at the wave-l...
متن کاملHigh-Speed Single-Photon Detection Using 2-GHz Sinusoidally Gated InGaAs/InP Avalanche Photodiode
We report a telecom-band single-photon detector for highspeed quantum key distribution systems. The single-photon detector is based on a sinusoidally gated InGaAs/InP avalanche photodiode. The gate repetition frequency of the single-photon detector reached 2 GHz. A quantum efficiency of 10.5 % at 1550 nm was obtained with a dark count probability per gate of 6.1×10−7 and an afterpulsing probabi...
متن کاملHigh-speed Imaging and Wavefront Sensing with an Infrared Avalanche Photodiode Array
Infrared avalanche photodiode (APD) arrays represent a panacea for many branches of astronomy by enabling extremely low-noise, high-speed, and even photon-counting measurements at near-infrared wavelengths. We recently demonstrated the use of an early engineering-grade infrared APD array that achieves a correlated double sampling read noise of 0.73 e in the lab, and a total noise of 2.52 e on s...
متن کاملTemporal and spatial multiplexed infrared single-photon counter based on high-speed avalanche photodiode
We report on a high-speed temporal and spatial multiplexed single-photon counter with photon-number-resolving capability up to four photons. The infrared detector combines a fiber loop to split, delay and recombine optical pulses and a 200 MHz dual-channel single-photon detector based on InGaAs/InP avalanche photodiode. To fully characterize the photon-number-resolving capability, we perform qu...
