Photodiode for high-power laser monitoring

Aug. 27, 2014
Opto Diode, a division of ITW and a member of the ITW Photonics Group, has introduced its SXUV Ø2.5 mm photodiode with a circular active area.

Newbury Park, CA - Opto Diode, a division of ITW and a member of the ITW Photonics Group, has introduced its SXUV Ø2.5 mm photodiode with a circular active area. It provides stability after extreme ultraviolet (EUV) conditions, and is housed in a TO-39, 3-pin, windowless package that delivers responsivity down to 1nm. The active area is typically Ø2.5 mm and has a minimum shunt resistance (Rsh) of 20MΩ at ±10mV (typical). The photodiode has use in high-power laser monitoring at wavelengths from 1 to 200nm, or other tasks that require a highly stable photodiode after EUV exposure. Device parameters include reverse breakdown voltage of 20V, with 1nF capacitance. Response time is 1ns (typical) to a maximum of 2ns.
