Since the SiPM performance is sensitive to the bias voltage applied and the ambient temperature, a measurement SiPM properties as functions of bias voltage (V<sub>b</sub>) and temperature (T) was performed on the SSPM-06~. (By this point, the SSPM-06~ was judged to be a better sensor for the tagger microscope, owing to [[:Image:Image:BCF20,LED,SiPMs comp.png|higher sensitivity in the blue-green range]] and better active area match to the fiber cross-section. Aside from gains in efficiency and dynamic range of the resulting readout, higher photon detection implies better time resolution because of the scintillation decay time of 2.7ns in the fiber.)
