The Average distance between 2 Silicon nuclei is known as the Mean free path of Silicon and can be determind by .......

# The number of Silicon Nuclei in the SiPM can be obtained by calculating the total volume of the sensitive region of the SiPM multiplied by the density of Silicon

Therefore, the final prediction for the dark rate of the SiPM:
