Abstract

The invention relates to a single-photon detector, and specifically relates to a calibration device and method for the detection efficiency of a single-photon detector. Measurement can be directly performed on horizontal optical radiation of a single photon. The calibration device comprises an optical darkroom, a refrigeration type trap detector, a temperature controller, a switching integral amplifier and a precision displacement platform, and is characterized in that the absolute spectral response rate of the trap detector is traced back to an optical power reference-low temperature radiometer. The calibration device has extremely low dark noise, and can directly perform measurement on the luminous flux horizontally in the single photon, thereby realizing direct calibration for the detection efficiency of the single-photon detector.
