NEW SXUV5 EXTREME ULTRAVIOLET PHOTODETECTOR COMES WITH CIRCULAR ACTIVE AREA OF 2.5 MM. DIAMETER

Summary of NEW SXUV5 EXTREME ULTRAVIOLET PHOTODETECTOR COMES WITH CIRCULAR ACTIVE AREA OF 2.5 MM. DIAMETER


Opto Diode Corporation (an ITW company) released the SXUV5, a windowless TO-5 packaged extreme ultraviolet (EUV) photodiode with a 2.5 mm circular active area. It offers high responsivity from 1 nm to 190 nm, long-term stability under high-intensity EUV, shunt resistance ≥20 MOhm, reverse breakdown voltage typically 20 V (min 5 V), capacitance 500–1500 pF, and response time 1–2 ns. Operating/storage ranges cover -10 °C to +40 °C ambient and -20 °C to +80 °C in nitrogen or vacuum; lead soldering temperature is 260 °C.

Parts used in the SXUV5 Photodetector:

  • SXUV5 extreme ultraviolet photodiode
  • TO-5 windowless package
  • Device leads suitable for 260 °C soldering

Opto Diode Corporation, an ITW companyintroduces the SXUV5, an extreme ultraviolet (EUV) photodiode with a circular active area of 2.5 mm diameter. The new device has superior responsivity in the 1 nm to 190 nm wavelength region and is specially designed to be highly stable over long periods of time when exposed to high-intensity EUV energy.

The new photodetector joins Opto Diode’s family of SXUV photodiodes with varying active area sizes to meet critical measurements, speed, and power monitoring performance objectives.

The SXUV5 is housed in a windowless, TO-5 package to allow for responsivity at wavelengths shorter than 150 nm. Other features include shunt resistance of 20 MOhms (minimum) and reverse breakdown voltage of 5 Volts (minimum) to 20 Volts (typical). Capacitance is 500 pF (typical) to 1500 pF (maximum), and response time is from 1 nsec (typical) to 2 nsec (maximum).

Storage and operating temperatures range from -10 °C to +40 °C (ambient) and from -20 °C to +80 °C in nitrogen or vacuum environments. The lead soldering temperature is 260 °C.
