Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of photoelectric imaging detection, in particular to a single-photon imaging detector and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] With the development of biomedicine, space detection and environmental radiation detection technology, the detection requirements for weak light are getting higher and higher, and because of the extremely weak target, it is impossible to use traditional cameras and conventional detection technology to obtain images, especially when the light is too weak When a single photon is emitted, general low-light imaging devices cannot meet the demand. Therefore, single-photon imaging detection technology has become a research hotspot in the current international scientific and technological circles. Traditional imaging devices based on Charge-Coupled Device (CCD, Charge-coupled Device) and Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS, Complementary Metal Oxide Semico...
