讨论了面积达10×10 mm(2)的硅光电倍增管(SiPM)的效率、增益、暗率、后脉冲概率和光学串扰等最佳参数。描述了x3 mm(2)SiPM，并对其性能进行了验证。给出了3×3 mm~2 SiPM应用的三个例子：(1)跃迁辐射X射线探测I；(2)用快闪烁体测量飞行时间；(3)用LYSO晶体探测PET伽马。给出了相应的实验结果，并对实验结果进行了讨论。(C)2006爱思唯尔B.V.保留所有权利。
The Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPMs) with large area up to 10 x 10mm(2) are considered and their optimal parameters, such as efficiency, gain, dark rate, after pulsing probability and optical crosstalk are discussed. The x 3 mm(2) SiPM is described and its performance is demonstrated. Three examples of 3 x 3 mm2 SiPM application are given: (1) transition radiation X-ray detection I; (2) time of flight measurements with fast scintillators; (3) detection of PET gammas using LYSO crystals. Corresponding experimental results are presented and discussed. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
