M. Bourennane et al., Single-photon counters in the telecom wavelength region of 1550 nm for quantum information processing, J MOD OPT, 48(13), 2001, pp. 1983-1995
We describe the status of commercially available InGaAs/InP avalanche photo
diodes for use as single-photon counters in the telecom wavelength region o
f 1550 nm.
