Title: VLPC characterization for the Dzero upgrade

Abstract

The authors have studied the performance characteristics of approximately 4,000 Visible Light Photon Counters (VLPC) over a range of operating temperatures and biases. They will describe the characterization procedure and present the measured gain, noise, and relative quantum efficiency for the devices. They will also discuss the general operation of the devices and the significant problems encountered during the characterization.
