26 Jul 2013 The new 20-element AXUV20ELG features a 22-pin, dual in-line package with 100 percent internal quantum efficiency (QE). Bolometry, the measurement of minute amounts of radiant energy, is a key application for this highly sensitive photodiode. The device is also ideal for electron detection, providing EUV-UV and UV-VIS-NIR photon responsivity (measured in amperes per watt).
The AXUV20ELG includes an active area of 0.75 mm x 4.1 mm and a sensitive area of 3 mm² per element. The reverse breakdown voltage is typically 25 volts and the capacitance is 40 pF maximum (at 25°C, per element). With a rise time of 200 nsec and shunt resistance (per element) at a minimum 100 MOhms, Opto Diode’s new 20-element photodiode provides exceptionally stable response after exposure to high energy radiation.
The sensitive AXUV devices are shipped in secure, temporary housings to protect the photodiode and wire bonds. Ambient storage and operating temperatures range from -10 °C to 40 °C, and nitrogen or vacuum storage/operation temperatures range from -20 °C to 80 °C. The lead-soldering temperature is 260 °C with a maximum junction temperature at 70 °C. For more information about Opto Diode’s IRD UV photodiodes, please visit: http://optodiode.com/products.html
