Abstract

A silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) is a highly sensitive photo sensor, and it consists of many micropixels that operated in Geiger mode. The SiPM has various preferable characteristics, such as low voltage operation compactness and lightweight. Additionally, the SiPM is robust and insensitive to magnetic fields, and it is capable of the counting of single photons due to the high gain of 105 ∼ 106. The developments of UV enhanced SiPMs and large area matrices of SiPMs have been actively pursued in the world. The technology can be utilized for applications such as radiation detection, medical science, cameras, and telescopes. In this study, we present the design, fabrication, and test result of the 64-channel SiPM sensor as the first step toward the development of a large matrix of SiPMs.
