ID Quantique‘s ID230 Infrared Single Photon Detector
Free-running InGaAs/InP photon counter with extremely low dark count
- Free-running
- 25% quantum efficiency
- Low dark count rate: 50 Hz
- 150 ps timing resolution
The ID230 delivers reliable and robust telecom-wavelength single-photon detection, with the performance and versatility of a semiconductor system.
With the ID230, unwanted detector noise is uniquely low. Thanks to an advanced cooling system and best-in-class device control electronics, the temperature of the ID230’s InGaAs/InP avalanche photodiode can be cooled stably to -90°C, giving detector dark counts as low as <50 Hz.
Specially designed for applications with asynchronous detection, this single-photon counting module can detect up to 25% of all photons arriving through its optical fibre-couple input (MMF or SMF), with a user-definable detector deadtime of 2 μs to 100 μs.
Get the most out of your ultra-sensitive photonic experiments and applications with the ID230 Infrared Single-Photon Detector today.
