First Sensor to display solid-state silicon photomultipliers at SPIE Photonics West 2016

Jan. 20, 2016
The SiPM-NUV and SiPM-RGB solid-state silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) detect ultra-low light levels down to single photons.

The SiPM-NUV and SiPM-RGB solid-state silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) detect ultra-low light levels down to single photons. The detectors are optimized for near-ultraviolet (SiPM-NUV) or red, green, and blue (SiPM-RGB) light detection with peak sensitivities at 420 or 550 nm. They achieve very high gain (>106) and high photon detection efficiencies for applications such as high-energy physics, medical diagnostics, nuclear medicine, homeland security, and analytical instruments.
