The SiTek Standard PSD (Position Sensing Detector) has high resolution, fast response and outstanding linearity. It is used in a wide variety of applications, most of them utilizing light sources in the visible or near-infrared part of the spectrum. The spectral range covers the region 400 – 1100 nm. Thanks to SiTek’s proprietary AR-coating, optimized around 860 nm, a reflection loss of only 2% is achieved around the responsivity peak. Most of the detectors have a cover window to avoid handling damages.
Position Sensing Detectors (PSD)
The PSD (Position Sensing Detector) is an opto-electronic device which converts an incident light spot into continuous position data. It provides outstanding resolution, fast response, excellent linearity for a wide range of light intensities and also simple operating circuits.
There are two main types of PSDs available: one-dimensional and two-dimensional.
