Thermal and electrical characterization of silicon photomultiplier

2007 IEEE Nuclear Science Symposium Conference Record, 2007
Detection of low levels of light is one of the key aspects in medical and space applications. Silicon photomultiplier, a novel type of avalanche photodetector which operates in Geiger mode, shows promising results and offer superior design options. The performance characteristics of the SiPM realized in FBK-irst are studied and presented in this paper.

Distribution and rare earth element abundances of apatite in Bennu samples determined by synchrotron X‐ray fluorescence spectroscopy

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Apatite is often the most rare earth element (REE)‐enriched mineral in chondritic meteorites. REE enrichment and fractionation levels in apatite grains can give insight into the aqueous fluids in which they formed and the conditions prevailing within the host body. In this study, we applied synchrotron X‐ray fluorescence (SXRF) spectroscopy to

Ultra‐Weak Photon Emission as a By‐Product of Mitochondrial Oxidative Metabolism: Mechanisms, Limits, and Implications

Nanophotonics, Volume 15, Issue 20, 27 October 2026.
Mitochondrial oxidative metabolism generates ROS. Downstream chemiexcitation triplet carbonyls, singlet oxygen; produces ultra‐weak photon emission (UPE). Energetic bounds restrict well‐coupled respiration to extremely weak, red/NIR‐biased emission. Stronger visible UPE indicates elevated oxidative flux, linking measured photon counts to redox state ...

Towards Optical Partial Discharge Detection with Micro Silicon Photomultipliers

Sensors, 2017
Optical detection is reliable in intrinsically characterizing partial discharges (PDs). Because of the great volume and high-level power supply of the optical devices that can satisfy the requirements in photosensitivity, optical PD detection can merely ...

Cryogenic operation of silicon photomultiplier arrays

Journal of Instrumentation
Abstract The LHCb experiment at CERN has been upgraded for the Run 3 operation of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). A new concept of tracking detector based on Scintillating Fibres (SciFi) read out with multichannel silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) was installed during its upgrade.
