During the last years a new device for photon detection has been developed by Philips Digital Photon Counting, combining Silicon-PMT techniques with integrated logic, to get a fully digital photo sensor (dSiPM). An Evaluation Kit for dSiPMs has been installed at the Central Institute for Electronics at the Forschungszentrum Jülich. First measurements show, that the chip temperature is a factor that has to be controlled by the operator, since the higher integrated electronics on the die heat up the sensor. In this work, we present our first results focusing the influence of the temperature on the digital SiPMs. A test setup with a high power Peltier element has been set up to cool down the sensor device below -10°C. Several measurements have been done with the dSiPM evaluation kit to show the behaviour of the breakdown-voltage and the dark count rate under different temperature conditions. |
