Properties of Large Area Avalanche Photodiodes (LAAPDs) at liquid nitrogen (LN2) temperatures in application to study pure NaI, CsI and BGO scintillators are presented. All the tested crystals exhibited excellent performance at LN2 temperatures reflected by a high light output and very good energy resolution. The study showed that the LAAPD operating at LN2 temperatures is an excellent light readout device for testing different scintillators at low temperatures. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V.
