The greatest challenge for mid-infrared detectors is typically the substantial inherent noise and that they collect large amounts of noise from the surroundings. Our single-wavelength detectors alleviates both limitations by using narrowband and efficient upconversion technology together with low-noise silicon-based detectors. This is all done in our plug-n-play detector modules where the infrared signal is mixed with our high-power pump laser to produce a near-visible signal detectable by a versatile range of high response silicon-based detectors. In case you are not in the need for ultra-low signal detection we also offer broad-band solutions that compromise the efficiency but allow your broad-band sources into the regime of high-speed and low-noise mid-infrared detectors.
Whether you are looking for the smallest or the fastest signals we believe that our portfolio of state-of-the-art mid-infrared detectors can serve almost any challenging measurement task you can imagine.
Always plug-n-play, maintenance free and with built-in transimpedance amplifier.
