Research Summary

A single photon avalanche photodiode (SPAD) is a highly sensitive semiconductor device designed to detect individual photons of light. It operates in a manner similar to traditional photodiodes but is optimized for detecting extremely low levels of light, down to the level of single photons. SPADs utilize a reverse-biased p-n junction that, when biased above its breakdown voltage, enters a high-gain avalanche multiplication mode in response to the absorption of a single photon. This avalanche process generates a detectable electrical signal, allowing the SPAD to count and measure individual photons with high temporal resolution and sensitivity. SPADs find applications in various fields, including quantum cryptography, quantum communication, fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM), lidar systems, and low-light imaging, where precise detection of single photons is crucial for achieving high-performance sensing and imaging capabilities.
