Turn-Key NIR Single Photon Counting (SPC)

Turn-Key NIR Single Photon Counting (SPC)
from Aurea

The Aurea SPD_OEM_NIR series stands for a high-performance and easy-to-use near-infrared single photon detection turn-key solution for industry and science.
It is based on cooled Geiger-mode InGaAs avalanche photodiodes controlled by its free-running and gated-mode embedded electronics and user-friendly software. The SPD_OEM generates a TTL pulse for each photon. 30% quantum efficiency and a dark count rate of less than 5 x 10^6 per ns gate allows fast and accurate measurements.
