International Conference on New Developments in Photodetection'da bildiri olarak sunulmuştur.We have developed a zinc sulfide-silicon (ZnS-Si) isotype heterojunction avalanche photodiode (APD) structure that has high quantum efficiency and low excess noise factor for photons of wavelength in the region from 340 to 800 nm. The dependence of quantum efficiency, mean signal and its fluctuation on incident photons wavelength are calculated in a well-defined device geometry by a Single Particle Monte Carlo simulation technique. Based on this work, we offer a new APD structure for scintillation light detection.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessNuclear science & technologyPhysicsInstruments & instrumentationScintillation light detectionMonte carlo simulationHeterojunction detectorsDetector modellingScintillationQuantum efficiencyPhotonsMonte carlo methodsHeterojunctionsAvalanche diodesArticle0002416363000622-s2.0-337493700352682712671Instruments & instrumentationNuclear science & technologyPhysics, nuclearPhysics, particles & fieldsAvalanche Photodiodes; Dark Currents; Calorimeters
