Pyroelectric DLaTGS Detectors

27 Jun 2024

Deuterated Lanthanum α Alanine doped TriGlycine Sulphate, or DLaTGS for short is a crystalline structure that offers the strongest pyroelectric effect.

Pyroelectric materials are able to convert any incident radiation into a signal, allowing them to sense wavelengths from UV through to THz.  DLaTGS in particular is very sensitive, meaning a higher signal output, thus increasing the signal to noise ratio.  Additionally, the detectors have a very fast response time compared to other pyroelectric materials.

Typical applications for this technology are in the fields of fourier-transform-infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and high-end gas sensing.  Our detectors can be supplied with a wide range of broadband or bandpass filter windows.

LASER COMPONENTS is delighted to announce that we manufacture this high performance material at our detector group facility in Arizona.  We look forward to discussing your requirements.
