| Opto Diode Introduces Absolute X-ray Photodiodes for Solar Spectrum Studies
Opto Diode (www.optodiode.com), a division of ITW, and a member of the ITW Photonics Group, now offers semiconductor radiation sensors for detecting photons and other particles. The new product line includes the IRD AXUV 100GX Absolute X-ray Photodiode. The X-ray detector possesses known active silicon thicknesses and 100 percent internal quantum efficiency, making possible absolute measurement of X-ray flux with energies 100 keV and beyond. X-ray responsivity measurements performed at PTB Germany confirm the responsivity of AXUV 100GX devices can be calculated from their known silicon thickness.
Opto Diode’s unique IRD line of AXUV 100GX photodiodes features a large (10 mm x 10 mm square) active area with room-temperature operation and a small detector footprint. Simple to use and, unlike any other X-ray detectors on the market, the
IRD X-ray detector requires no external voltage for operation. The nitrided-oxide front window of the AXUV 100GX diode provides up to a Gigarad (SiO2) of radiation hardness which is 10,000 times greater than standard PIN silicon photodiodes. Photodiodes with directly-deposited, thin-metallic filters are available for reducing response to visible light by several orders of magnitude.
The advanced sensors are used internationally by synchrotron scientists and by space scientists for the solar spectrum studies. AXUV 100 GX X-ray photodetectors are manufactured domestically and available for shipping now from Opto Diode’s Southern California facility.

| Opto Diode Introduces High Power, 30-Die, Infrared LED Array
Opto Diode Corporation, a global supplier of advanced performance photodiodes and highly reliable, visible and IR LEDs, has developed the first in a series of high power LED arrays, the OD-850-30-030. The new 30-die near-infrared (NIR) LED array delivers more efficient operation and higher power with a narrow beam angle of 30 degrees. The device has a peak wavelength of 850 nm (min. 840 nm and max. 865 nm) and a total optical power output of 16 watts.
Ideal for night vision systems and skin therapy applications, Opto Diode’s NIR light-emitting-diode array is available for shipping in OEM quantities by June 28, 2010.
Russ Dahl, director of sales and marketing for Opto Diode, notes, “Making an array results in a much more compact size, compared to using discrete components.
