Photon-number statistics with Silicon photomultipliers
arXiv:0910.4786 · doi:10.1364/JOSAB.27.000852
Abstract
We present a description of the operation of a multi-pixel detector in the presence of non-negligible dark-count and cross-talk effects. We apply the model to devise self-consistent calibration strategies to be performed on the very light under investigation.
