Sensor Line Used in the Detection of THz and mm Wavelengths

In collaboration with DESY (the German Electron Synchrotron Institute), InfraTec developed a 30-element pyroelectric sensor line (LIM-107) that detects synchrotron radiation in the THz and mm wavelength range in a spectrometer.

The specifications for the LIM-107 detector are as follows:

• 30 elements, 2 mm x 2 mm, arranged in an arc
• 3 alternative electrode coatings available for the wavelength ranges around 100 µm (3 THz), 300 µm (1 THz), and 1 mm (0.33 THz)
• No window; operation possible in a vacuum
• External dimensions approximately 170 mm x 55 mm x 5 mm
