The dark count rate depends on temperature. We use a peltier element and a dark box to quantify this relationship.
Setup
@Vikas: can you update this?
Measurements
We took dark count measurements at 12 different temperatures.
T = [9.565, 7.664, 1.915, 3.823, 11.484, 5.735, 17.256, 15.32, 13.405, 19.185, 21] degrees Celcius.
For each temperature, around 1500 waveforms were recorded with an oscilloscope. Each waveform is 5 microseconds. You can clearly see the single p.e. peaks already in the raw waveform shown in Figure 1. In Figure 2, a waveform with noise is shown.
