摘要
The performance of solid-state photon detectors such as avalanche photodiodes or silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) is strongly affected by temperature. Important device characteristics for the detection of low light levels or single photons are photon detection efficiency, dark noise, and gain. In the present work the C-series SiPMs from SensL was characterized in cryogenic environments. At 77 K the SiPMs proved to be an excellent choice for single photon detection and an operation point with minimum noise contributions was found. At 4 K the performance was degraded, exhibiting a smaller gain and a larger noise. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
