Detection of Liquid Xenon Scintillation Light with a Silicon Photomultiplier
We have studied the feasibility of a silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) to detect liquid xenon (LXe) scintillation light. The SiPM was operated inside a small volume of pure LXe, at -95C, irradiated with an internal Am α source. The gain of the SiPM at this temperature was estimated to be 1.8 × 10 with bias voltage at 52 V. Based on the geometry of the setup, the quantum efficiency of the SiPM was ...
متن کاملCompact Quantum Random Number Generator with Silicon Nanocrystals Light Emitting Device Coupled to a Silicon Photomultiplier
A small-sized photonic quantum random number generator, easy to be implemented in small electronic devices for secure data encryption and other applications, is highly demanding nowadays. Here, we propose a compact configuration with Silicon nanocrystals large area light emitting device (LED) coupled to a Silicon photomultiplier to generate random numbers. The random number generation methodolo...
متن کاملThe Digital Silicon Photomultiplier
The Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPMs) are the new step in the development of the mod‐ ern detection structures in the area of low photon flux detection with a unique capa‐ bility of detection up to the single photons. The Silicon Photomultiplier intrinsically represents a digital signal source on the elementary cell level. The materials and tech‐ nology of SiPMs are consistent with the modern el...
متن کاملCMOS Solid-State Photomultiplier for Detecting Scintillation Light in Harsh Environments
A CMOS SSPM coupled to a scintillation crystal uses an array of CMOS Geiger-mode avalanche photodiode (GPD) pixels to collect light and produce a signal proportional to the energy of the radiation. Each pixel acts as a binary photon detector, but the summed output is an analog representation of the total photon intensity. We have fabricated arrays of GPD pixels in a CMOS environment, which make...
متن کاملSignal Driven Multiplexing of Silicon Photomultiplier Arrays
SensL C-, Jand R-Series SiPM sensors have a fast, capacitively coupled output that gives a high speed output signal, which is suitable for timing applications. Summing the fast output directly is not recommended as this would negatively affect the resulting signal. By introducing a diode pair (fast Schottky) as shown in Figure 1, the Fast signal from the active SiPM is transferred to the Common...
