A prototype avalanche photodiode array for scintillating-fiber tracking detectors
We have evaluated the performance of a prototype 16-channel avalanche photodiode (APD) array developed primarily for scintillating-fiber (SCIFI) tracking detectors. The APD array was coupled to a 2.5 m long SCIFI array, and the detection efficiency was measured for minimum ionizing particles passing through the SCIFI array. The APD array was cooled to −50◦C to improve the S/N ratio. We have fou...
متن کاملAvalanche photodiode A User Guide
Introduction Avalanche photodiode detectors (APD) have and will continue to be used in many diverse applications such as laser range finders, data communications or photon correlation studies. This paper discusses APD structures, critical performance parameter and excess noise factor. For low-light detection in the 200to 1150-nm range, the designer has three basic detector choices the silicon P...
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 کاملEvaluation of Avalanche Photodiode Arrays for the Readout of High Granularity Scintillator Matrices
In order to provide sufficient flexibility for patient positioning at the Heidelberg charged hadron tumour treatment facility, γ-ray detectors with large sensitive area and small volume are highly desirable for the positron camera to combine with a rotating beam delivery (gantry). Photon detector technology yields increasingly more compact PET-detectors consisting of inorganic scintillators, e....
