High sensitivity from short wavelength to 800 nm

Si APD S17353 series

  • Hamamatsu Photonics K.K. Solid State Division

These APDs feature improved sensitivity across a wavelength range from short wavelengths to 800 nm. While they offer high sensitivity in the short-wavelength region, they also achieve high gain at longer wavelengths compared to conventional short-wavelength APDs (S8664 series, S12053 series), while maintaining low noise levels. This makes them suitable for applications such as very low-level light measurement and analysis instruments that require a wide wavelength range.
