PIONEER is a next-generation experiment to measure the charged pion branching ratios to electrons vs muons $R_e/\mu = \frac{\Gamma\left(\pi^+ \rightarrow e^+ \nu (\gamma) \right)}{\Gamma\left(\pi^+ \rightarrow \mu^+ \nu (\gamma)\right)}$…

Achieving high quantum efficiency (QE) with low dark count is essential for highly sensitive photodetectors (PDs), including single photon avalanche detectors (SPADs). However, high QE requires a thicker absorber region, which leads to high…
