Additional information
Reports the first set of ionization parameters and low temperature data that can be used to design novel InAs APDs that can outperform photomultiplier-tubes (PMT). When cooled InAs APDs are better than Silicon APDs and PMTs. It is key to an EPSRC grant (EP/J015814/1) with Lancaster and Nottingham totalling £0.84M, and ESA contract (No.4000107110/12/NL/CBi, €500k) and led to a CASE studentship sponsored by LAND Ametek (Jon.Willmott@ametek.co.uk), a world leader in radiation thermometry, to develop InAs based thermometer. It was presented as an invited talk in the 2011 IEEE Photonics Conference.
