Abstract

A single-photon detection suppression circuit based on rapid current induction comprises an avalanche photodiode which is connected with an output end through a current source induction module, a connecting point of the avalanche photodiode and the current source induction module is connected with the output end through a reset switch, and the current source induction module is connected with the reset switch through a suppression switch. Voltage added to the avalanche photodiode is the sum of avalanche voltage VB and additional voltage VEX, when a photon reaches, the avalanche photodiode (APD) generates avalanche currents rapidly, the current source induction module induces increasing of the currents and then sends a signal to enable the suppression switch to be turned on, at the moment, voltage of the two ends of the APD is lower than avalanche breakdown voltage, so that avalanche is stopped, and the output end generates an electric pulse. The electric pulse reaches the reset switch after a period of time delay, so that the circuit returns to the initial state of receiving the photon.
