Gain fluctuations in a uniform avalanche diode

Werner Riegler

We derive the explicit probability distribution of the total avalanche size produced by m primary electron-hole pairs created at an arbitrary position in a uniform avalanche diode.…

Passive quenching, signal shapes, and space charge effects in SPADs and SiPMs

Philipp Windischhofer, Werner Riegler

In this report we study the dynamics of passive quenching in a single-photon avalanche diode. Our discussion is based on a microscopic description of the electron-hole avalanche co…

Time resolution and efficiency of SPADs and SiPMs for photons and charged particles

Werner Riegler, Philipp Windischhofer

We give an analytic treatment of the time resolution and efficiency of Single Photon Avalanche Diodes (SPADs) and Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPMs). We provide closed-form expressio…

The statistics of electron-hole avalanches

Philipp Windischhofer, Werner Riegler

Charge multiplication through avalanche processes is commonly employed in the detection of single photons or charged particles in high-energy physics and beyond. In this report, we…

Signals induced on electrodes by moving charges, a general theorem for Maxwell's equations based on Lorentz-reciprocity

Werner Riegler, Philipp Windischhofer

We discuss a signal theorem for charged particle detectors where the finite propagation time of the electromagnetic waves produced by a moving charge cannot be neglected. While the…
