Fiber +APD detector Fiber +APD detector

Scintillator tile w/ quarter circle groove

  • air gap to attenuate height
  • f signal amplitude to APD

APD Ubias = 270V very low gain (~3) ↔ pin diode

Measurement: temperature Measurement: temperature

  • Long time period: 1 month

→ >2 billion pulses

  • Large variations in temperature within 7 K
  • 3 sensors (2 @ CMB, 1 nearby APD)
  • same time history
  • full correlated

ADP + PIN response ADP + PIN response

APD PIN

  • good correlation ADP-PIN

response

  • very similar time response
  • PIN more noisy due to low signal ampl

Relative response Relative response

  • normalized at average
  • ver whole time scale
  • variation in response

at level ± 10%

  • visible time slope fall

in PD responses

  • light intensity decrease

in time

APD PIN Temp inverse

Time stability Time stability

  • PIN / APD – Temperature correlation
  • unexpected result -> time instability
  • light intensity decrease in time – PIN & APD response decreasing

APD APD – – PIN correction PIN correction

  • PIN correction (dividing responses) to APD signal

as used in LED calibration procedure

  • almost flat result < 2%
  • difference from uniformity ↔

not same PIN / low gain APD temperature dependence

  • small jumps in time = (probably PIN) electronics instability

Summary Summary

Long time stability of LED-PIN-APD electronic-optical

system was measured over one month Large temperature variation cause big variations in response of optical system -> PIN – low gain APD and/or temperature dependence PIN-APD system can correct on long time instability of whole system Probably visible aging effects of optical fibers
