Prospects for improving the accuracy of silicon photodiode self-calibration with custom cryogenic photodiodes
On the measurement of photon flux in parametric down-conversion
We report the measurement of the photons flux produced in parametric down-conversion, performed
in photon counting regime with actively quenched silicon avalanche photodiodes as single photon
detectors. Measurements are done with the detector in a well defined geometrical and spectral situation.
By comparison of the experimental data with the theory, a value for the second order
susceptibilities of the non linear crystal can be inferred
