Abstract

Avalanche photodiodes (APD) could replace photomultiplier tubes (PMT) in some areas like positron emission tomography (PET). It is therefore important to study their performance. In this study, we have tested two types of APD's, the Hamamatsu S5345W and the Perkin-Elmer C30719E. We evaluated and compared the dark current, the gain and the excess noise factor of these two APD types.

来自Hamamatsu和Perkin-Elmer的不同类型雪崩光电二极管的评价

雪崩光电二极管(APD)在正电子发射断层扫描(PET)等领域可以取代光电倍增管(PMT)。因此，研究它们的性能是很重要的。在本研究中，我们测试了两种类型的APD, Hamamatsu S5345W和Perkin-Elmer C30719E。我们对这两种APD的暗电流、增益和多余噪声系数进行了评价和比较。
