NEW!! DAPD INNOVATION IN SOLID STATE PHOTOMULTIPLIER

Photon Counting and Low Light Level Detectors

DAPD photon Counting Detector
Solid State Photomultiplier by Amplification Technologies,incMultichannel Discrete Amplification (DA) Detector Our New partner Amplification Technologies Inc. has developed a new approach for the detection of low-level signals - that allows the simultaneous attainment of very high gain, high speed and ultra-low excess noise in a silicon device. The Discrete Amplification (DA) involves three basic functions: the design of DA photon detectors, providing these detectors with unique competitive advantages. Use of DA in semiconductor detectors increases their sensitivity markedly, and enables the creation of new detector systems for various applications including medical diagnostics, security systems, telecommunications, environmental monitoring and drug discovery.

Amplification Technologies' DA photodetectors could function in both analog and photon counting modes. The DA photodetectors provide:
