ABSTRACTThe tracking of high energy, secondary products in the Superconducting Super Collider (SSC) presents challenging sensitivity and timing requirements for the scintillating fiber converters and the optical radiation detectors planned for use as signal readouts. Silicon Avalanche Photodiodes (APD) are very promising detectors which may ultimately meet these requirements.We have designed and manufactured 1 mm2 APDs, to be operated in Geiger mode as single photon detectors for the SSC. The progress on decreasing the APD response time by platinum doping, device thinning and external avalanche quenching is reported.

Intensity Interferometer

A prototype intensity interferometer readout for single-photon detectors is presented as a time-to-digital converter (TDC) implemented on a field-programmable gate array (FPGA). We briefly discuss the history and scientific motivations for the instrument. A comparison is drawn between the use of photomultiplier tubes in linear mode and single-photon avalanche diodes (SPAD) in Geiger mode. Different FPGA-based TDC configurations are discussed. We describe the design and implementation of a four-phase FPGA-based TDC. The paper concludes with the application of the design to investigate SPAD after-pulsing and a description of future work.
