HgCdTe (MCT) Four-Channel Detection ModuleQM-5

3.5 – 6.0 µm, DC – 1 MHz, with photovoltaic four-element quadrant geometry detector

QM-5 is „all-in-one” position IR detection module. Thermoelectrically cooled photovoltaic quadrant geometry detector, based on HgCdTe heterostructure, is integrated with transimpedance, DC coupled four-channel preamplifier, a fan and a thermoelectric cooler controller in a compact housing. It is designed to accurately measure the displacement of an incident beam relative to the calibrated center. This device is ideal for measuring the movement of a beam, the distance traveled, or as feedback for alignment systems.
