id201 family (Single photon detection module at IR wavelength) Apr 6, 2009

Single photon detection module at IR wavelength (900 – 1700nm), optimized for Telecom Wavelengths. Based on InGaAs/InP avalanche photodiode operating in Geiger mode. RS232 computer interface.

The id201 is a single photon detection module based on InGaAs/InP APD, biased beyond breakdown voltage. It features high detection efficiency (up to 25%), as well as low noise and low timing jitter.
It offers a well-thought design with intuitive menus and an ergonomic display. All parameters can be adjusted via the graphical interface.

The id201 is the most reliable photon counter on the market. The photodiode at the heart of the id201 meets the most stringent reliability requirements (Telcordia GR-468-CORE).

Besides counting photons, the id201 offers truly invaluable functionalities:
- internal and auxiliary counters
- graphical display
- clock output, gate output
- NIM and TTL detector output signals
- RS-232 interface
- Single Mode (SMF) or Multi Mode (MMF) fiber input
