title: Characterization of silicon avalanche photodiodes for photon correlation measurements. 2: Active quenching.
abstract: We continue examination of the photon correlation properties of silicon avalanche photodiodes operated in photon-counting mode by extending their operation from that of passive quenching(1) to active quenching, yielding shorter dead time and higher frequency operation.
