ULTRAFAST PHOTODETECTORS UPD  
 

  Our UV-extended version is the only commercial photodiode that covers the spectral range from 190 nm to 1100 nm and has risetime below 200ps. Because of the extremely low dark current ,the built-in high -power battery provides trouble -free operation for UP TO FIVE YEARS! in combination with our ultrafast low-noise amplifiers(1 GHz bandwidth) the UPD-type photodetectors are an inexpensive alternative to the avalanche devices.  

Features:
-ultra high-speed operation
-risetime below 40 picoseconds
-wide spectral ranges
-built-in biasing
-long-life battery
-coaxial photodiode coupling
-compact design
-high sensitivity

Applications:
-pulse form measurements
-pulse duration measurements
-precise synchronization

BROADBAND PULSE AMPLIFIERS

The ultrafast amplifiers BBA-10 and BBA-10-4HP find universal applications in high-speed electronics and especially in the laser/photonics research. They are primarily designed to amplify te signals of our ultrafast photodiodes. The latter combination is an inexpensive replacement for the avalanche photodiodes. Both types are inverting amplifiers, suitable for amplifying positive signals.  
FEATURES:
*extremely broad bandwidth
*low noise
*high gain 10x (+20dB)
*compact coaxial design
*noise immunity


APPLICATIONS:
*high-speed electrical and optical measurements
*laser/opto-electronics research
*photon counting
