Ideally suited for systems operating in
both the visible and IR, Cal Sensors two-color coaxial detector
assemblies consist
of a silicon (Si) photodiode mounted on a PbS or a PbSe detector.
Si/PbS or Si/PbSe detector assemblies can be
operated uncooled or thermoelectrically (TE) cooled and are packaged in
a variety of TO-packages.
Standard Si diodes are 2.9 and 5.0
mm in diameter. Virtually any element size PbS or PbSe detector which is
smaller, can be installed under the diode. Silicon diodes are coated to
maximize IR energy throughput to the PbS or PbSe detector.
Silicon diodes operate in the visible
spectrum up to approximately 1 µm, hence the wavelength range covered by
Si/PbS is 0.4 to 3.0 µm, and for Si/PbSe, it is 0.4 to 6.0 µm.
