title = "Integrated array of avalanche photodiodes for single-photon counting",
abstract = "The design and characterisation of arrays of single photon avalanche diodes (SPAD) is presented The performance of the devices make them suitable in many applications, like single-photon imaging for microelectronic investigation and fluorescence correlation spectroscopy. A new problem arising from the integration of SPADs is the optical crosstalk between adjacent pixels, due to the secondary photons emitted by an avalanching junction. This effect is quantitatively investigated and a trench isolation process is proposed for eliminating it and opening the way to the fabrication of monolithic 2-D matrix with parallel read-out.",
