AbstractA design for a high-efficiency single-photon detector based on lanthanum and cerium hexaborides, which operates from the infrared to ultraviolet spectral ranges, is suggested. The results of computer simulations of heat transfer in the sensitive element of the detector upon the absorption of photons with energies of 0.5–4.13 eV are presented. To attain a high efficiency of the system of photon detection in the wavelength range from near infrared to ultraviolet, lanthanum hexaboride is proposed as the absorber and heat-sink material in the sensitive element. It is shown that a sensitive element of both single- and three-layer design made entirely of hexaborides will possess a gigahertz counting rate and a detection efficiency exceeding 90%.
