Abstract
Photon counting detectors have made large strides in recent years. Quanta image sensor (QIS), the electron-multiplying charge-coupled device (EMCCD), and single photon avalanche diode (SPAD) are three leading single photon counting silicon technologies. An example of each device has been fully characterized and evaluated. Their performance and value add have been determined for future space flight missions.
