About Electro Optical Components Inc.- Type: Component
- High Gain APD: 10^6 to 10^7
- Spectral Range: 225 - 355 nm
- Higher temperature stability: 175 C
The Silicon Carbide (SiC) UV APD has many of the properties of other APDs in that it is extremely sensitive and has high signal gain, but is only sensitive to UV. Besides responding only to the UV, the tough silicon carbide (SiC) provides high energy and high temperature stability.
Applications:
• Detection of low level UV-light, UV photon detection
• Ideal for UV Flame Detection
• Solid state replacement for UV PMTs (Photo Multiplier Tubes)
• Flame control
Additional features:
• Hermetically sealed TO-52 package
• Stability in high energy UV applications
