Gentec-EO - Hybrid Terahertz Pyroelctric Detectors

Name: Gentec-EO - Hybrid Terahertz Pyroelctric Detectors - QS5-THZ-BL
Brand: Gentec-EO
Availability: InStock

Description

Gentec-EO offers a room-temperature pyroelectric detector for terahertz (THz) sensing applications. Pyroelectric detectors are AC sources whose output varies inversely with the thickness of material temperature.

Broadband, room-temperature pyroelectric detectors are playing an important role in the research and development of advanced THz sources. Interest for these sources have increased dramatically over the past five years as has interest in development of thermal detectors to support the research.

Features

RELATIVE MEASUREMENTS FROM 0.1 TO 30 THz
Broadband, room temperature operation, easier to use and less expensive than a Golay cell
EASY TO INTEGRATE FORMAT
TO5 and TO8 packages make the QS-THZ detectors small and easy to integrate in an existing system
SEVERAL SENSOR SIZES AVAILABLE
Choice of 2 x 2 mm, 5 and 9 mm Ø
CALIBRATED AT 0.63 μm
All THz detectors are calibrated at a single wavelength (0.63 μm) and include a typical wavelength correction data from 0.25 to 440 μm. They are used for relative measurements outside that range.
TEST BOX AVAILABLE
Can be used with our QS-I-TEST test box which provides mounting and power supply
PERMANENT IR WINDOW OPTIONS
Every model can be fitted with a permanent IR window to narrow the wavelength range:
S5/8: Sapphire (0.3 – 4.5 and 100 - 1000 μm)
Q5/8: Quartz (0.25 – 3.0 and 50 - 1000 μm)
Si5/8: Silicon (1.2 – 8.0 and 50 - 1000 μm)

Applications

Security scanning of people and baggage
Nondestructive testing of airplane wing structures
Early detection of cancerous growths
Noninvasive testing in microelectronics

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Gentec-EO Hybrid Terahertz Pyroelectric Detector used for?

The Gentec-EO Hybrid Terahertz Pyroelectric Detector is used for terahertz (THz) sensing applications, such as security scanning of people and baggage, nondestructive testing of airplane wing structures, early detection of cancerous growths, noninvasive testing in microelectronics, and terahertz spectroscopy.

What are the features of the Gentec-EO Hybrid Terahertz Pyroelectric Detector?

The features of the Gentec-EO Hybrid Terahertz Pyroelectric Detector include relative measurements from 0.1 to 30 THz, broadband, room temperature operation, easy to integrate format, several sensor sizes available, calibrated at 0.63 μm, test box available, and permanent IR window options.

What are the sensor sizes available for the Gentec-EO Hybrid Terahertz Pyroelectric Detector?

The Gentec-EO Hybrid Terahertz Pyroelectric Detector comes in a choice of 2 x 2 mm, 5 and 9 mm Ø sensor sizes.

What is the wavelength range for the permanent IR window options for the Gentec-EO Hybrid Terahertz Pyroelectric Detector?

The Gentec-EO Hybrid Terahertz Pyroelectric Detector can be fitted with a permanent IR window to narrow the wavelength range. The S5/8 option has a range of 0.3 – 4.5 and 100 - 1000 μm, the Q5/8 option has a range of 0.25 – 3.0 and 50 - 1000 μm, and the Si5/8 option has a range of 1.2 – 8.0 and 50 - 1000 μm.

What is the THz portion of the electromagnetic spectrum?

The THz portion of the electromagnetic spectrum fills the gap between the far infrared and the microwaves. In wavelengths, this range corresponds to 0.1 mm (or 100 μm) infrared to 1.0 mm microwave. The THz band is set in the region where electromagnetic physics can best be described by its wave-like characteristics (microwave) and its particle-like characteristics (infrared).
