Problems solved by technology

In the signal processing circuit in the single-photon detection system, the dark count can also be reduced by increasing the comparison threshold of the discriminator, but the premise is that the threshold must ensure that the signal pulse passes through, and there must be a margin, so this method Can only remove some small amplitude dark count pulses

Abstract

The single photon counting discriminator circuit with dark counting pulse discrimination of the present invention comprises: resistor R1, resistor R2, resistor R3, resistor R4, rheostat W1, capacitor C1, capacitor C2, capacitor C3, capacitor C4, capacitor C5, diode D1 , Electronic switch K1, comparator IC1 and operational amplifier IC2. Resistor R1, resistor R3, capacitor C1, capacitor C4, capacitor C5, comparator IC1 and rheostat W1 form a comparator with adjustable threshold. Resistor R2, resistor R4, diode D1, electronic switch K1, capacitor C3 and operational amplifier IC2 form a counting trigger pulse integration circuit. The invention distinguishes the dark counting pulse by judging the pulse width of the counting trigger pulse, thereby effectively reducing the dark counting of the single photon detection system. Compared with the traditional refrigeration technology, the invention has the advantages of simple structure, low cost and low power consumption.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a single photon counting discriminator circuit with dark counting pulse discrimination. Background technique [0002] Single photon detection technology is a kind of extremely weak light detection technology. It has a wide range of applications in sensory fields. The photoelectric receiving devices used in single photon detection technology mainly include photomultiplier tubes, avalanche photodiodes and superconducting nanowire single photon detection devices. In the single-photon detection system using these photoelectric receiving devices, the dark count is an important source of noise, and reducing the dark count is an important means to improve the detection sensitivity of the single-photon detection system. Dark counts mainly come from thermal excitation, tunnel penetration and potential wells at doping defects. Thermal excitation will cause electrons to transition from full band to empty band, and at the same time, hole...
