Noise and Breakdown Characterization of SPAD Detectors with Time-Gated Photon-Counting Operation

Being ready-to-detect over a certain portion of time makes the time-gated single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) an attractive candidate for low-noise photon-counting applications. A careful SPAD noise and performance characterization, however, is critical to avoid time-consuming experimental optimiza...
