Description
Single photon detectors are used in a wide range of experiments at SNOLAB, from SNO, to DEAP-3600, and experiments on the horizon, nEXO and ARGO. The technology continues to evolve from vacuum Photo-multiplier tube to Silicon photo-multiplers, to the future "photon to bit" converter. I will review the evolution of the technology and highlights its relevance to ongoing and future experiments at SNOLAB and show how the technology can be used beyond asto-particle physics.
