    This document discusses single photon detection using avalanche photodiodes. It operates avalanche photodiodes in Geiger mode using either a passive or active quenching circuit to overcome problems with noise and gain stability in linear operation at high gain. The passive quenching circuit uses resistors to quench the avalanche, while the active quenching circuit uses a reference voltage to quench.
