MPPC® (Multi-Pixel Photon Counter)
S13360 series
MPPCs for precision measurement
MPPC is a type of device called SiPM (Silicon Photomultipliers). It is a new type of photon counting device that consists of
multiple Geiger mode APD (avalanche photodiode) pixels. It is an opto-semiconductor with outstanding photon counting capability and low operating voltage and is immune to the effects of magnetic fields.
The S13360 series are MPPCs for precision measurement. The MPPCs inherits the superb low afterpulse characteristics of
previous products and further provide lower crosstalk and lower dark count. They are suitable for precision measurement, such
as flow cytometry, DNA sequencer, laser microscope, and fluorescence measurement, that requires low noise characteristics.
Features
Applications

(compared to previous products)
Fluorescence measurement
Outstanding photon counting capability (outstanding photon
detection efficiency versus numbers of incident photons)
Flow cytometry
Laser microscopes
Compact
DNA sequencers
Environmental analysis
Operates at room temperature

Various academic research
High gain: 105 to 106
Excellent time resolution
Immune to the effects of magnetic fields
Operates with simple readout circuit
MPPC module also available (sold separately)
Lower noise
When an MPPC detects photons, the output may contain spurious pulses, namely afterpulse and crosstalk, that are separate from the output pulses of the incident photons. Afterpulses are output later than the timing at which the incident light is received. Crosstalk is output
from other pixels at the same time as the detection of light.
Previous products achieved lower afterpulse through the improvement of material and wafer process technology, but with the S13360 series, low crosstalk has been achieved in addition to low afterpulse.

MPPC characteristics vary with the operating voltage. Although increasing the operating voltage improves the photon detection efficiency and time resolution, it also increases the dark count and crosstalk at the same time, so an optimum operating voltage must be
selected to match the application.
