Abstract :
Silicon photomultipliers (SiPM) have rapidly increased their popularity among scientists and engineers involved in the detection of low energy photons over a wide range of applications, thanks to their characteristics which compare favourably with those of photomultiplier tubes (PMT), in terms of bias voltage, immunity to magnetic fields and size.
