Description
Recent developments in single-photon avalanche diodes (SPADs) have lowered detector time resolution to tens of picoseconds full width half maximum (FWHM), which represents a big enhancement compared to photon detection techniques used at the time of Hanburry Brown and Twiss. In the context of the QUASAR project, I will summarize the main enhancements and present the results obtained over the last few years. This verification phase shows the great potential of single-photon detectors and motivates the next phases of the project.
