摘要：
This paper describes the design, fabrication, and performance of planar-geometry InGaAs-InP devices which were specifically developed for single-photon detection at a wavelength of 1550 urn. General performance issues such as dark count rate, single-photon detection efficiency, afterpulsing, and jitter are described.
