Bridgewater, New Jersey – October 1, 2007 – Hamamatsu Corporation has introduced a new near-infrared photomultiplier tube (NIR PMT) module with easy handling, low noise, and a thermoelectrical (TE) cooling system, which eliminates the need for liquid nitrogen or cooling water.

The H10330 NIR PMT module series consists of a compact NIR PMT contained in a thermally insulated, sealed-off housing evacuated to a high vacuum. The H10330 series has high sensitivity (capable of photon counting), low noise, rise time of 900 ps, transit time spread (TTS) of 300 ps, and its own TE cooling system. Three models in the H10330 series, which differ in spectral response range, are available. The H10330-25 has a range from 950 nm to 1200 nm, the H10330-45 from 950 nm to 1400 nm, and the H10330-75 from 950 nm to 1700 nm. Intended applications include photoluminescence, singlet oxygen measurement, LIDAR, Raman spectroscopy, cathodoluminescence, fluorescence, and fluorescence life time.

Also available in the near-infrared detector line-up are the R5509 NIR PMT series and R3809U NIR MCP-PMT series. The R5509 NIR PMT series features two models with wide spectral response; R5509-43 has a range of 300-1400 nm while R5509-73 has a range of 300-1700 nm. Two models in the R3809U NIR MCP-PMT series are available featuring a fast response time of 170 ps rise time and 70 ps TTS. The R3809U-68 has a range of 950-1400 nm, and the R3809U-69 has a range of 950-1700 nm.
