A new kind of photonic device is proposed to be used in the fast operating mode of the ionization profile monitor. A silicon photomultiplier device combines the advantages of photomultipliers and solid-state photo detectors. It provides high sensitivity, wide optical spectrum response, high bandwidth and absence of 1/f noise component. Those parameters are critical in the IPM with fast readout feature, which is developing in GSI in collaboration with ITEP, COOSY, MSU and CRYRING laboratories. Very first investigations were made to obtain detailed parameters of silicon photomultiplier. A testing layout and resulting performance data are presented in this publication.
