Silicon Photomultiplier Technology at STMicroelectronics
IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science, 2009In this paper we present the results of the first electrical and optical characterization performed on 1 mm2 total area Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPM) fabricated in standard silicon planar technology at the STMicroelectronics Catania R&D clean room facility. The device consists of 289 microcells and has a geometrical fill factor of 48%.

Silicon photomultipliers for scintillating trackers
Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, 2012Abstract In recent years, silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) have been proposed as a new kind of readout device for scintillating detectors in many experiments. A SiPM consists of a matrix of parallel-connected pixels, which are independent photon counters working in Geiger mode with very high gain ( ∼ 10 6 ). This contribution presents the

Silicon photomultipliers development at STMicroelectronics
SPIE Proceedings, 2013Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPMs) are fabricated in two different configurations: p-on-n and n-on-p junctions. More particularly p-on-n SiPMs turn out to be more suitable in nuclear medical imaging applications like Positron Emission Tomography (PET), due to their higher sensitivity in blue wavelength range where common PET scintillators have their ...

Recent developments in silicon photomultipliers
Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, 2007Abstract A novel type of avalanche photodetector with Geiger mode operation, known as a Silicon PhotoMultiplier (SiPM) provides an interesting advance in photodetection and is already an alternative to traditional PMTs in many applications. The state of the art of the SiPMs—their main properties and problems—are discussed.
