Germany SGLUX UV Photodiode SG01D-5LENS Description About Material Silicon Carbide (SiC)

SiC has unique characteristics, can withstand high-intensity radiation, is almost insensitive to visible light, generates low dark current, fast response speed and low noise. These properties make SiC a good material to use for visible blind zone semiconductor UV detectors. SiC detectors can operate at temperatures up to 170°C (338 °F). The temperature coefficient of the signal (responsivity) is also low,

German SGLUX UV Photodiode SG01D-5LENS Options

SiC photodiodes are available in seven different effective sensitive areas, from 0.06 mm2 to 36 mm2. The standard version is a broadband UVA-UVB-UVC.

The four filtered versions result in a tighter sensitization range. All photodiodes have a sealed metal housing (TO type), a TO18 housing with a diameter of 5.5mm or a TO5 housing with a diameter of 9.2mm. Further options are 2 pins (1 insulated, 1 grounded) or 3 pins (2 insulated, 1 grounded).
