摘要：

盖革模式雪崩光电二极管（G-APD）是一种新型的光电探测器，可以探测单光子。这种类型的二极管可能会成为下一代成像空气切伦科夫望远镜中光电倍增管（PMT）的替代品。展望了其发展前景、局限性和发展方向。报告了第一次测试的结果。

英文摘要：

Geigermode avalanche photodiodes (G-APD) are novel photodetectors, which can detect single photons. This type of diodes might become an alternative to photomultipliers (PMT) in next-generation Imaging Air Cherenkov Telescopes. Prospects, limitations and development directions are be discussed. Results from first tests are reported.
