2.5 – 5.4 µm, ambient temperature
PV-5 is uncooled IR photovoltaic detector based on sophisticated HgCdTe heterostructure for the best performance and stability. The device is optimized for the maximum performance at λopt = 5.0 μm. Cut‑on wavelength can be optimized upon request. Reverse bias Vb may significantly increase response speed and dynamic range. It also results in improved performance at high frequencies, but 1/f noise that appears in biased devices may reduce performance at low frequencies.
Features:
- High performance in the 2.5 - 5.4 µm spectral range
- Ambient temperature operation
- No bias required
- No 1/f noise
