Recent Development
  • A family of 1,550nm avalanche photodiodes is the first product that the University of Sheffield spin-out Phlux has unveiled. The infrared gadgets, named Aura, are constructed from modified InGaAs, an antimony alloy. The resultant sensors can be used with APD gains as high as 120, which allows for the amplification of even the smallest signals above the trans-impedance amplifier's noise floor when it is coupled. Another advantage is their quick overload recovery, which makes it possible to identify weaker secondary pulses that happen soon after a strong pulse. Aura APD 200 (200µm optical aperture) and Aura APD 80 (80µm aperture) are the devices in question.
