The SiPM has many advantages, including high gain, low voltage
operation, perfect timing reliability, high sensitivity (down to a
specific photon), and tolerance to magnetic fields. Because of these
characteristics, it is an excellent choice for light detection
applications ranging from single photons to thousands. SiPMs are tiny
electronic devices that can withstand physical shocks. Their high
performance makes them ideal for a wide range of photometry, or light
detection, applications, particularly where precise seque...
