Number-resolving single photon detectors are essential for the implementation of numerous innovative quantum information schemes. While several number-discriminating techniques have been previously presented, the Silicon Photo-Multiplier…
In our Ultra-Fast Astronomy (UFA) program, we aim to improve measurements of variability of astronomical targets on millisecond and shorter time scales. In this work, we present initial on-sky measurements of the performance of silicon…
The radiation damage to a silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) set on a satellite orbit increases energy threshold for scintillator detectors. We confirmed that 1 krad of radiation increases the energy threshold by approximately a factor of 10,…
SiPMs operate in Geiger mode, wherein photodiode cells are reverse-biased to the breakdown by even a single photon. Each cell is connected in series with a quenching resistor, which prevents cell damage and resets the cell after making a…

Change Detection (CD) is an essential field in remote sensing, with a primary focus on identifying areas of change in bi-temporal image pairs captured at varying intervals of the same region by a satellite. The data annotation process for…
The gain of silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) increases with bias voltage and decreases with temperature. To operate SiPMs at stable gain, the bias voltage can be adjusted to compensate temperature changes. We have tested this concept with…
