Paper Abstract

Until recently, photon-counting photomultipliers have been standard detectors for photon correlation measurements in the study of macromolecules, velocity and speckle l) etc. We have examined in detail the performance characteristics of silicon avalanche photodiodes (AM's) as alternative detectors for such studies 2,3).
