We report on the performance of recent avalanche photodiodes (APDs) produced by Hamamatsu photonics as a new X-ray and γ-ray detector. An FWHM energy resolution of 6.5% was obtained for direct detection of 5.9 keV X-rays, whereas 9.4% was obtained for 59.5 keV γ-rays measured with a CsI crystal. Because of their small volumes and low operating bias voltage, APDs are promising devices for future space research. We are planning to use them for our small satellites, CUTE-1.7 and Hu-ring.
