Discrimination of Photon- and Dark-Initiated Signals in Multiple Gain Stage APD Photoreceivers
We demonstrate the ability of linear mode single carrier multiplication (SCM) avalanche photodiode (APD)-based optical receivers to discriminate single-photon-initiated avalanche events from dark-current-initiated events. Because of their random spatial origin in discrete regions of the depletion re...
