These High Efficiency Nanostructure IR Sources offer:

• Nanotechnology achieves higher efficiency.
• Emitter set-up made of a high-melting metal, the free-standing monolithic radiating element and the nanostructured emitter surface.
• Lower element temperature of 600°C increases lifetime.

The emitters are:

• More stable
• Less or no drift
• A lot more power
• 2.5 to 5 times more sensor gain than Pulsed MEMS IR Sources
• A lot less noise (very important)
• All windows are hermetically sealed (Sapphire, CaF2 and BaF2 windows)

Many performance advantages are achieved in many applications:

• SMD emitters are great for many projects where size and power are issues (portable devices and others).
• High power applications (TO39 and TO8 packages) where you can get more power out with the same or less power in.
