P2748_15 Datasheet, PDF (1/4 Pages) Hamamatsu Corporation – MCT photoconductive detectors
MCT photoconductive detectors
P2748/P5274 series
Dewar type detector with high sensitivity and
high-speed response in long wavelength range
Features
Choice of spectral response range (up to 25 μm)
The band gap can be adjusted by controlling the composition
ratio of HgTe and CdTe. Utilizing this fact, various types are
available in different spectral characteristics.
Photoconductive element that decreases its resistance
by input of infrared light
Custom devices available
Custom devices not listed in this catalog are also available
with different spectral response, active area sizes and num-
ber of elements.
Applications
FTIR
Infrared spectrophotometers
Thermal imaging
Remote sensing
CO2 laser detection

*1: Value specified at the time of shipment. This will shorten over time. Re-evacuation every 1.5 or 2 years is recommended.
Note: Exceeding the absolute maximum ratings even momentarily may cause a drop in product quality. Always be sure to use the
product within the absolute maximum ratings.
