Opto Diode announces AXUV300C, a large, rectangular photodiode for electron detection

March 26, 2020
The new device is part of Opto Diode’s AXUV detector family that features high-performance detection of photons, electrons, and radiation.

CAMARILLO, Calif. - Opto Diode Corporation, an ITW company, has introduced the AXUV300C photodiode with a large 331 mm2 rectangular active area. The new device is part of Opto Diode’s AXUV detector family that features high-performance detection of photons, electrons, and radiation

The detector package includes 2 anode and 2 cathode pins, which allows for more versatile connections. There is no window to allow detection of energy shorter than 200nm. Other features include a response time of 15 microseconds. The large active area device features electron detection as low as 200 eV.

Storage and operating temperatures range from -10 °C to +40 °C (ambient) and from -20 °C to +80 °C in nitrogen or vacuum environments. The lead soldering temperature is 260 °C.

To learn more about Opto Diode’s AXUV family of detectors for measuring photons, electrons, or X-rays (from 0.0124 nm to 190 nm) that detect energy from 100eV to 50keV with remarkable 100% quantum efficiency, please visit https://optodiode.com/.
