Description

The PVM-2TE-λopt photodetectors series (λopt - optimal wavelength in micrometers) feature IR photovoltaic detector on two-stage thermoelectrical cooler. The devices are optimized for the maximum performance at λopt, large area devices.

Highest performance and stability are achieved by application of variable gap (HgCd)Te semiconductor, optimized doping and sophisticated surface processing. Custom devices with quadrant cells, multielement arrays, different windows, lenses and optical filters are available upon request.

Standard detectors are available in TO-8 packages with BaF2 windows. Other packages, windows and connectors are also available.
