Advanced Photonix Announces 400-1700nm Extended Visible InGaAs Position-Sensitive Detectors

Advanced Photonix is excited to announce the release of a new family of 400 nm to 1700 nm Position-Sensing Detector (PSD) that is highly sensitive and accurate. Its broad spectral response covers the visible, near-infrared (NIR), and short-wave infrared (SWIR) wavelengths.

The APX-VNG series offers outstanding performance, including:

• 2kΩ inter-electrode resistance
• 20 µm position detection error, ensuring precise measurements.
• 400 to 1700 nm broad spectral response covering the visible, NIR, and SWIR wavelengths.
• Available in hermetically sealed TO-5 or surface mount packages with an anti-reflective window

The APX-VNG series is suitable for various applications, including:

• Communication and Defense: Alignment, nulling, centering, targeting, and guidance systems.
• Medical: Laser alignment and positioning in medical instruments.
• Industrial: Robotics, machine vision, and automation.
• Research and Development: Position and displacement measurements in various scientific fields.
