Capacitive Quenching Measurement Circuit for Geiger-Mode Avalanche Photodiodes

Characterization of Geiger-mode avalanche photodiodes operated in gated mode requires fast rising-edge, well-defined over-bias pulses, and effective avalanche quenching. There has not been a suitable circuit that meets both criteria, thus, making systematic characterization and accurate comparison o...
