Jenoptik photodiodes feature angle-independent response spectrum

A range of photodiodes with an angle-independent response spectrum detect a predefined wavelength range without an additional filter and have spectral receiving characteristics independent of angle of incidence. They are made from materials such as GaP, AlGaN, AlGaAs, InGaAs, or SiC, and are designed for a range of 150 to 1750 nm.

PRESS RELEASE

Selective Photodiodes with Angle-Independent Response Spectrum

Jenoptik has developed a new product range of photodiodes with an angle-independent response spectrum. Compared with conventional silicon photodiodes, the new photodiodes detect a predefined wavelength range without the need for the insertion of an additional filter. Unlike dielectric filters, they also provide spectral receiving characteristics that are independent of the angle of incidence of the radiation.

The new photodiodes are ideally suited for all photometric applications where an extended measurement range (dynamic range) is required. These new space saving wavelength-selective radiation detection diodes can now be achieved space saving and follow the trend towards miniaturization while simplifying assembly.

Jenoptik provides customer specific solutions and a wide range of photodiode products as preassembled standard products in SMD and TO housings. The photodiodes are made from materials such as GaP, AlGaN, AlGaAs, InGaAs, or SiC and are designed for a spectral range of 150 to 1750 nanometers. Their detection is wavelength-selective, and they are characterized by their excellent signal and noise performance. In hermetically sealed special housings they are thermally stable up to 125°C.

Photodiodes provide safety. They are widely-used in Automotive, Security and Health Care industries in a wide range of applications including daylight/tunnel sensors or lane departure warning systems in vehicles, in monitoring safety levels in gas detectors, in water disinfection for monitoring dosages of UV radiation, as flame sensors for burner monitoring, as detectors in photoelectric sensors, and for analysis of body fluids concentration in medical technology.
