Progress report on APD

Progress report on APD. The Gain measurements were made using a good channel of APD for the red, yellow, green and blue light, using different LEDs as source of light. Also, a gain curve from direct measurements was compared to the curve provided by the manufacturer.

  1. Progress report on APD • The Gain measurements were made using a good channel of APD for the red, yellow, green and blue light, using different LEDs as source of light. • Also, a gain curve from direct measurements was compared to the curve provided by the manufacturer. • Work on the better APD shielding and connectivity to amplifiers is in progress

  2. Progress report on APD • The reason why the measured curve is not as sharp as provided by the manufacturer could be due to the relatively high noise levels.

  5. Progress report on APD • For the second APD: • Tests of random 10 channels show conformity to the specifications of the “good” channels of the 1st matrix. • Work in progress to create a “personal” shielding for this APD so that it can be used outside of black box.

  6. Progress report on APD Summary • 2nd APD connection circuit is realized and is working • Measurements of Gain of APD were performed for different wavelengths • 10 elements of 2nd APD matrix were tested • No change in APD temperature was detected during tests • Work is ongoing on the second APD connectivity to the amplifier • Next, pre-amp will be connected and all channels tested together • Also, some progress is done towards measuring the Gain vs. temperature • Work on the compact shielding of APD is in progress.
