Optimized silicon photomultipliers with optical trenches
2011 Proceedings of the European Solid-State Device Research Conference (ESSDERC), 2011This paper reports on the electrical characteristics of silicon photomultipliers (SiPM) with optimized optical trench technology. The SiPM arrays were characterized from single pixels up to the full 64×64 pixel device. The data clearly show a perfect scaling of the dark current with the pixel number, thus indicating an almost ideal insulation among the

Silicon Photomultipliers - End of the Photomultiplier Tubes Era
LEOS 2007 - IEEE Lasers and Electro-Optics Society Annual Meeting Conference Proceedings, 2007The principle of silicon photomultipliers (SiPM) is discussed. The SiPM structure is based on the array of submicron semiconductor micro-cells, working in breakdown mode with integrated quenching elements and common electrode. The characteristics and the operational conditions of the SiPM is presented.

Novel Silicon Photomultipliers for PET Application
2006 IEEE Nuclear Science Symposium Conference Record, 2006Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPMs) with quantum efficiency maximized for a wavelength between 420 and 470 nm have been developed at ITC-irst Trento (Italy), and are being tested for their application in the construction of a ultra high resolution small animal PET tomograph. The devices have an area of 1 mm × 1 mm and 625 microcells. The breakdown voltage

CY5 fluorescence measured with silicon photomultipliers
2014 IEEE Biomedical Circuits and Systems Conference (BioCAS) Proceedings, 2014This paper presents an efficient optical biosensor set up for a low-level light detection, using fluorescent dyes and a novel Si-based detector. Fluorescence emitted by a traditional fluorophore, CY5, widely used as optical label in DNA microarrays, was detected using a 25 pixels Silicon photomultiplier (SiPM), a device formed by avalanche diodes ...

Comparison of NaI coupled to photomultiplier tube and silicon photomultiplier
2018 IEEE Nuclear Science Symposium and Medical Imaging Conference Proceedings (NSS/MIC), 2018The NaI scintillator has been widely used for decades. In recent years, the silicon photomultiplier (SiPM), a new photosensor based on semiconductor technologies, has attracted a great deal of attention and has started replacing the conventional photomultiplier tube (PMT) in some applications.
