Sensors and detectors

By re-engineering the position sensing circuit, Hamamatsu Photonics has developed a new profile sensor with an embedded computing function

Large Area Avalanche Photodiodes Advanced Photonix, a division of OSI Optoelectronics, has introduced compact and rugged Large Area Avalanche Photodiodes (LAAPDs)

Opto Diode has released an ultraviolet-enhanced detector featuring a 5.5mm diameter active area, the UVG20S

Focuslight technologies, a global provider of high power diode lasers and micro optics, announced the LIMO Wide Angle Diffuser at SPIE Photonics West 2020. Designed for automotive LiDAR and 3D sensing applications, the LIMO Wide Angle Diffuser is a glass refractive optical element (ROE) with the ability to disperse laser light in one direction up to a full illumination angle, ranging from a few mrad up to 150 degrees. When combined with a second functional surface, the light can also be shaped at any desired angle in the other direction.
