CMOS Silicon Photomultipliers new
Description
The silicon photomultiplier is a single-photon light sensor with characteristics similar to a photomultiplier tube but with the advantages of a solid-state device (compactness, ruggedness, cost…). FBK has developed different implementations, according to the application, which are at different TRL stages.
