Photon Counting with Passive Quenched Silicon Avalanche

Abstract

We investigate the performance of silicon avalanche photodiode (APD) with passive quenching circuit for photon counting in the near-infrared range. The characterizations of an APD colled at -20 °C are described in terms of dark counts, operating temperature and bias-voltage.

Keywords: optoelectronics, optical detector.
