We demonstrated calibration on the detection efficiency of Si-avalanche photodiode(APD)and InGaAs-APD singlephoton detectors by correlated photon pairs at 780 nm and 1550 nm,respectively.The correlated photons were generated by spontaneous frequency down-conversion in a periodically poled potassium titanyl phosphate crystal(PPKTP)pumped by a pulsed fiber laser.The uncertainty of~10-4 on detection efficiency was obtained for both single-photon detectors.
