Characterization of a 66-mm super(2) 75- mu m cell MPPC suitable for the Cherenkov Telescope Array project

This paper presents the latest characterization results of a novel Low Cross-Talk (LCT) large-area (66-mm super(2)) Multi-Pixel Photon Counter (MPPC) detector manufactured by Hamamatsu, belonging to the recent LCT5 family and achieving a fill-factor enhancement and cross-talk reduction. In addition,...

description This paper presents the latest characterization results of a novel Low Cross-Talk (LCT) large-area (66-mm super(2)) Multi-Pixel Photon Counter (MPPC) detector manufactured by Hamamatsu, belonging to the recent LCT5 family and achieving a fill-factor enhancement and cross-talk reduction. In addition, the newly adopted resin coating is demonstrated to yield improved photon detection capabilities in the 290-350 nm spectral range, making the new LCT MPPC particularly suitable for emerging applications like Cherenkov Telescopes. For a 33-mm super(2) version of the new MPPC under test, a comparative analysis of the large pixel pitch (75- mu m) detector versus the smaller pixel pitch (50- mu m) detector is also undertaken. Furthermore, measurements of the 66-mm super(2) MPPC response versus the angle of incidence are provided for the characterized device.
