• Silicon photomultipliers （SiPMs） are a new generation of semiconductor-based photon counting devices with the merits of low weight, low power consumption and low voltage operation, promising to meet the needs of space particle physics experiments. In this paper, comparative studies of SiPMs and traditional vacuum photomultiplier tubes （PMTs） have been performed regarding the basic properties of dark currents, dark counts and excess noise factors. The intrinsic optical erosstalk effect of SiPMs was evaluated.
