Abstract
In this study, by designing high-speed transimpedance amplification circuit and developing photon counting program in the Labview platform, we investigate the variation curve of the area integral (essentially the charge) of the output waveform of Silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) versus the incident light flux (the number of photons irradiated to the surface of SiPM per unit of time). The maximum photon counting rate of 1.56 Gcps was obtained at 470 nm at room temperature. When the light intensity increases to a certain extent, due to the saturation of the SiPM, the photon counting rate did not increase with the increase of the light intensity anymore. In addition, by recording the incident photon number of the calibrated photodiode, we also plot the photon detection effieciency (PDE) curve versus the incident light wavelength under different light intensities. The PDE curves were in accordance with the ones in the datasheet of the SiPM when the light intensity is much smaller than the saturation light intensity for the SiPM.
