We have investigated different gate parameters` influence on the SPD`s noise characteristics. We have admitted that with an increase of gating voltage and constant value of quantum efficiency (QE), the dark count rate (DCR) decreases. There have been made some recommendations to improve SPD`s and whole QKD device's characteristics based on these observations. There have been discovered the quick rise of the DCR value with the increase of gating voltage above some certain value and this value was different for different detectors. It has been shown that universal empirical dependence compilation to connect control and operational parameters of SPD is a non-trivial task.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2103.07363v3","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2103.07363v3.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"investigation-of-the-dependence-of-noise","repo_url":"https://github.com/akoziy98/Automated_Stand","is_official":0,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
