Professor Stefan Kück tells us about the SIQUTE project’s work in developing single-photon sources, research which could have a significant impact in both the academic and commercial sectors. media:12958 http://www.euresearcher.com/14/eu-research-live StefanKück PatrickTruss (ed.) article Lopez2015 Detection efficiency calibration of single-photon silicon avalanche photodiodes traceable using double attenuator technique Journal of Modern Optics 2015 2 17 62 S2 S21 - S27 A highly accurate method for the determination of the detection ef ﬁ ciency of a silicon single-photon avalanche diode (Si-SPAD) is presented. This method is based on the comparison of the detected count rate of the Si-SPAD compared to the photon rate determined from a calibrated silicon diode using a modiﬁed attenuator technique, in which the total attenuation is measured in two attenuation steps. Furthermore, a validation of this two-step method is performed using attenuators of higher transmittance. The setup is a tabletop one, laser-based, and fully automated. The measurement uncertainty components are determined and analyzed in detail. The obtained standard measurement uncertainty is < 0.5%. Main contributions are the transmission of the neutral density ﬁlters used as attenuators and the spectral responsivity of the calibrated analog silicon diode. Furthermore, the dependence of the detection efﬁciency of the Si-SPAD on the mean photon number of the impinging laser radiation with Poissonian statistics is investigated. detection efﬁciency; Si-SPAD; photon statistics media:10500 0950-0340 (Print), 1362-3044 (Online) 10.1080/09500340.2015.1021724 M.López H.Hofer S.Kück report Kueck2015 EXL02 Publishable Summary - January 2015 2015 1 http://www.euramet.org/fileadmin/docs/EMRP/JRP/JRP_Summaries_2012/Open_Excellence_JRPs/EXL02_Publishable_JRP_Summary.pdf Publishable Summary KückStefan article Forneris2015 Electroluminescence from a diamond device with ion-beam-micromachined buried graphitic electrodes Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section B: Beam Interactions with Materials and Atoms 2015 J.Forneris A.Battiato D.Gatto Monticone F.Picollo G.Amato L.Boarino G.Brida I.P.Degiovanni E.Enrico M.Genovese E.Moreva P.Traina C.Verona G.Verona Rinati P.Olivero article GattoMonticone2015 Single-photon emitters based on NIR colour centres in diamond coupled with solid immersion lenses International Journal of Quantum Information 2015 1560011 D.Gatto Monticone J.Forneris M.Levi A.Battiato F.Picollo P.Olivero P.Traina E.Moreva E.Enrico G.Brida I.
