Characterization of Hamamatsu 14160 series of Silicon Photo-Multipliers

Silicon Photo-Multipliers (SiPMs) are semiconductor-based photo-detectors with performances similar to the traditional Photo-Multiplier Tubes (PMTs). An increasing number of experiments dedicated to particle detection in colliders, accelerators, astrophysics, neutrino and rare-event physics involving scintillators are using SiPMs as photodetectors. They are gradually substituting PMTs in many applications, especially where low... Show more
