Absolute measurement of detector quantum efficiency using parametric downconversion.

J G Rarity, K D Ridley, P R Tapster.   

Abstract

We show that a parametric downconversion crystal emitting angle resolved coincident photon pairs can be used to measure the absolute quantum efficiency of a photon counting detection system. We have measured the quantum efficiency of a silicon avalanche photodiode, operated in Geiger mode, as a function of operating voltage and compare this to results obtained using a conventional method.
