Product catalog summary

Overview: The document provides a detailed overview of various photodiodes and image sensors, including their specifications, applications, and features. It covers product lines such as hot diodes, silicon photodiodes, avalanche photodiodes, multi-pixel photon counters, photo ICs, and image sensors.

Hot Diodes: Designed for applications ranging from UV to near IR detection, these diodes are suitable for monochromatic light, electron beam, and YAG laser detection, offering cut-off frequencies from 10 MHz to over 1 GHz.

Silicon Photodiodes: This category includes standard Si photodiodes, PIN photodiodes, multi-element types, and those with preamps or TE-cooling, used for radiation detection and precision measurement.

Avalanche Photodiodes (APD): APDs are high-speed, high-sensitivity photodiodes with internal gain mechanisms, ideal for optical rangefinders, FSO, and laser radar, offering excellent linearity and low noise.

Multi-Pixel Photon Counters (MPPC): Compact opto-semiconductors with excellent photon-counting capabilities, used in fluorescence analysis and PET, operating at low bias and insensitive to magnetic fields.

Photo ICs: These integrate photodiodes with signal processing circuits, providing high reliability and resistance to electromagnetic noise, used in optical switches, color sensors, and laser beam detection.

Image Sensors: Covering wavelengths from NIR to X-rays, these sensors include CCD, CMOS, and InGaAs types, suitable for spectroscopy and measurement applications.

Flat Panel Sensors: Digital X-ray image sensors designed for high-resolution, real-time imaging, suitable for radiography, CT imaging, and non-destructive inspection.

Position Sensitive Detectors (PSD): Non-discrete position photosensors providing continuous electrical signals for position data, used in position and angle sensing, and optical rangefinders.

Infrared Detectors: Used in fields like measurement and aerospace, including InGaAs PIN photodiodes and MCT detectors, suitable for gas analysis and flame monitors.

Visible Light Sensors: Used as illuminance sensors with a spectral response close to the human eye, applicable in exposure meters and automatic lighting systems.

Color Sensors: Designed for monochromatic and RGB color detection, used in white balance adjustment and color control.

Light Emitting Diodes (LED): Infrared and red LEDs with high output power, suitable for optical switches and optical fiber communications.

Optical Communication Devices: Designed for high-speed optical fiber communications, including high-speed photodiodes and light emitter/receiver modules.

Mini-Spectrometers: Integrating an optical system, image sensor, and circuit for applications like light source evaluation and semiconductor process control.

Module Technologies: Includes photosensor amplifiers, photodiode modules, APD modules, and PSD modules, designed for precision photometry and low-light-level detection.
