Characterization of external cross-talk from silicon photomultipliers in a liquid xenon detector
D Gallacher, A. de St. Croix, S. Bron +28
The Light-only Liquid Xenon experiment (LoLX) employs a small-scale detector equipped with 96 Hamamatsu VUV4 silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) submerged in 5 kg of liquid xenon (LXe…
Stimulated Secondary Emission of Single Photon Avalanche Diodes
Kurtis Raymond, Fabrice Retière, Harry Lewis +11
Large-area next-generation physics experiments rely on using Silicon Photo-Multiplier (SiPM) devices to detect single photons, which trigger charge avalanches. The noise mechanism…
