Description
PerkinElmer Optoelectronics provides photon-counting modules
based on both APDs and innovative Channel Photomultipliers.
APD Based Single-Photon Counting Modules
The Single-Photon Counting Module (SPCM) is a self-contained
photon counter which covers the wavelength range from 400 nm
to 1100 nm, with photon detection efficiencies exceeding 70%
at 630 nm. It has an integral 2-stage TE cooler, cooler controller,
amplifier, discriminator and TTL output driver. It also contains
a high-voltage DC-to-DC converter and is powered from a single
5 V source. The module utilizes a patented active-quench
circuit which allows it to count over 10 million photons per
second. The photosensitive area is 0.2 mm, and units are
available with dark-count rates less than 25 counts/second.
SPCM-AQ4C Single-Photon Counting Array
The SPCM-AQ4C is a 4-channel photon-counting card capable
of detecting single photons of light over a wavelength range
from 400 nm to 1160 nm. Each channel is independent from
the others. The SPCM-AQ4C utilizes a unique silicon avalanche
photodiode (SliK
photon-detection efficiency exceeds 60% at 650 nm. Each
photodiode is both thermoelectrically cooled and temperature
controlled, ensuring stabilized performance despite changes
in the ambient temperature.
