Abstract
The possibility of operating author-designed avalanche photodetectors with a large photosensitive surface (7-mm2 area) in the photon counting mode at room temperatures is shown. The characteristics of these photodetectors and ΦД-115Л avalanche photodiodes are compared in the photon counting mode.
