Advances in multipixel Geiger-mode avalanche photodiodes (silicon photomultiplies)
We review the current status of developments in multipixel Geiger-mode avalanche photodiodes (also referred to as SiPMs, SSPMs, MRS APDs, AMPDs, MPPCs) and discuss their advantages and limitations for high-energy physics applications. & 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
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 کاملLow-temperature performance of a large area avalanche photodiode
A Large Area Avalanche Photodiode was studied, aiming to access its performance as light detector at low temperatures, down to 80 C. The excess noise factor, F ; was measured and found to be approximately independent of the temperature. A linear dependence of F on the APD gain with a slope of 0.0023970.00008 was observed for gains >100. The detection of low intensity light pulses, producing onl...
متن کاملTemperature Dependence of the Solubility of Nitrogen in Liquid Silicon Equilibrated with Silicon Nitride
The solubility of nitrogen in liquid silicon equilibrated with silicon nitride and its dependence on the composition of the atmosphere has been studied in the temperature region 1428–1542 C. High purity silicon was melted in silicon nitride crucibles under Ar and N2 atmospheres. The equilibrium was observed to be established within minutes, after which no evolution of the nitrogen content with ...
متن کاملSilicon Drift Detectors for High Resolution, High Count Rate X-ray Spectroscopy at Room Temperature
Silicon Drift Detectors (SDDs) consist of a fully depleted volume in which an electric field drives signal charges to a small sized anode. Due to their topology SDDs combine a large sensitive area with a small output capacitance. In an advanced SDD version for X-ray spectroscopy designed and fabricated at the MPI semiconductor laboratory the input transistor of the amplifying electronics has be...
