Hi-Speed Photodetectors and Receivers
Quick Overview
Coherent is a leading provider of high-speed photodetectors and photoreceivers . Our portfolio is enhanced by high-power, linear output photodetectors meeting the advanced requirements of test & measurement, research & development and the analog optics market worldwide.
Choose from 100+ model options with speeds from 18 GHz to 100 GHz designed for O-, C-, or dual-band operation and advantages such as high gain or high linearity.
The Evaluation Kit serves as an easy-to-use utility to characterize the balanced photodetector under laboratory conditions and consists of a printed circuit board (PCB), four screws to establish removable connectivity between photodetector and board, and one DC cable to ensure the photodiode bias voltage.
We recommend usage of our individually accessible photodetector power supply (PPS), in particular for optimized performance at high optical input levels. As a portable device, it provides a stable bias voltage supply and a front display for review of photocurrent.
