Popis: Geiger-mode (photon-counting) operation at 1.06 μm has been demonstrated with InGaAsP/InP avalanche photodiodes operated at room temperature. A photon detection efficiency of 33% was measured on uncoated detectors, representing an internal avalanche probability of 60%. Under identical bias conditions a dark count rate as low as 1.7 MHz was measured at 290 K, consistent with a primary dark current of
