Performance of a large-area avalanche photodiode at low temperature for scintillation detection

L Yang, SN Dzhosyuk, JM Gabrielse… - Nuclear Instruments and …, 2003 - Elsevier
We investigate the performance of a large-area (13 mm× 13 mm) avalanche photodiode at
temperatures ranging from 4.2 to 77 K. We find that the gain, at a given bias voltage …
