Single Photon Avalanche Diodes

A single-element passive quenching with active reset (PQAR) circuit is proposed. Its operation mechanism is studied in theory to show that this single element, based on thyristor, can provide similar function of quenching and reset for the free-running Geiger-mode operation of single photon avalanche diodes (SPADs) as the conventional PQAR circuits, but with significant simplicity. Requirement for the thyristor is identified, and an InP sample was designed, fabricated and characterized. Future work for further demonstration is also discussed.

To reduce the afterpulsing in single photon detection based on avalanche diodes, an advanced passive quenching circuit for operation in free-running mode is developed. The measurement setup is designed. The dark count rate (DCR) and afterpulsing of Single photon avalanche diodes (SPADs) are measured. The results show that the new passive quenching circuit has a better afterpulsing performance compared to traditional circuits.
