Ultraviolet/Extreme Ultraviolet (UV/EUV) Photodiodes: SXUV 100
Opto Diode’s recent acquisition of has opened a new line of advanced ultraviolet and extreme ultraviolet photodiodes with high stability. The extremely stable SXUV 100 is ideal for the detection of vacuum ultraviolet and extreme ultraviolet photons.
The advanced photon detectors in SXUV 100 Ultraviolet/Extreme Ultraviolet (UV/EUV) Photodiodes feature very high radiation hardness and are designed for long-lifetime operation in high particle flux environments with no loss of responsivity. Rigorous testing standards in the SXUV 100 photodiodes revealed no observable responsivity loss after exposure to billions of 157 and 193 nm pulses and exposure to 8 W/cm2 of CW 248 nm laser irradiance for three weeks.
Feature/Benefits of the SXUV 100 photodiodes
- 100% internal quantum efficiency
- Photon detection to 1 nm
- Electron detection to 200 eV
- 10 mm x 10 mm square active area (100 mm²)
- Nitrided metal silicide front window of the diode permits operation without loss of performance in high humidity and other environmental conditions that normally require sealed packages
- Diodes with single active areas are available from 1 to 576 mm²
- Quadrant diodes with several central openings may also be specified
Opto Diode’s advanced sensor technology devices feature unparalleled quantum efficiency stability and have been successfully used in both European SOHO and Coronas-Photon projects and in American SNOE, SORCE, GOES, TIMED and EOS solar space instrumentation.
