United Detector Technology Photodiode

United Detector Technology (UDT), now part of OSI Optoelectronics,

offers a range of high-performance photodiodes renowned for their precision and reliability in optical detection applications.

These photodiodes are engineered for tasks requiring accurate light measurement across various spectral ranges, including ultraviolet (UV), visible, and near-infrared (NIR) wavelengths

Key Features:

• Wide Spectral Response: UDT photodiodes cover a broad spectral range, with certain models like the PIN-10DFP exhibiting a flat response from 450 nm to 950 nm, suitable for applications demanding consistent sensitivity across the visible spectrum.

• Large Active Area: Models such as the PIN-10D feature an expansive active area of approximately 100 mm² (11.28 mm diameter), enhancing photon collection efficiency for low-light conditions.

• Fast Response Time: With rise times under 50 ns (with 50Ω termination), these photodiodes are apt for high-speed applications, including pulsed light detection and optical communication systems.

• Robust Packaging: The photodiodes are housed in durable enclosures, often featuring standard BNC connectors for straightforward integration into existing measurement setups.

Typical Applications:

• Spectroscopy and analytical instrumentation

• Laser power monitoring

• Medical diagnostics and imaging

• Industrial process control

• Scientific research requiring precise light measurements
