Lead Selenide and Lead Sulfide IR Photodetectors

Photonics News 39

Developed and manufactured by LASER COMPONENTS Detector Group in Tempe, Arizona


US39-923

Lead Selenide and Lead Sulfide IR Photodetectors are developed and manufactured in Tempe, Arizona.
The product-focused research team at the LASER COMPONENTS Detector Group (LCDG) in Tempe, AZ has been developing semiconductor photodetectors since its inception thirteen years ago. LASER COMPONENTS GmbH in Germany, a leader in the infrared detector market, has been selling lead salt devices since 1986. Accordingly, it was a natural progression that the latest development at LCDG would be the PbS and PbSe product lines, combining broad industrial application knowledge with experienced and progressive research capabilities.

As with all LASER COMPONENTS company commitments, the development team hired key specialists with decades of PbS and PbSe research and production experience. They had access to the Center for Photonics Innovation at Arizona State University (ASU), a group of laboratories with the latest and most sophisticated equipment available. Concurrently, a manufacturing space full of new and advanced equipment was built at the Detector Group facility. Now, with the new knowledge and production lines united, the results have been remarkable!

Using cutting edge device manufacturing technology, that includes large wafer semiconductor processing capability, the Detector Group is producing PbS and PbSe chips in high volume. This corresponds with the latest hermetic sealing technology and the newest available testing equipment being used for all packaged devices. Additionally, new development projects are ongoing at ASU. These strengths combine to provide the best-selling price versus device sensitivity in the industry. LASER COMPONENTS is dedicated to spearheading revolutionary lead salt infrared detector development to both meet and surpass future customer needs.


The LASER COMPONENTS Detector Group (LCDG) has been developing semiconductor detectors in Phoenix since 2004.

We are specialists in manufacturing IR devices.

In addition to the in-house capability of manufacturing PbS/PbSe, we have development programs with Arizona State University (ASU).

From the ASU/LCDG development programs we have developed the following:

  • State-of-the-art device ­manufacturing technology
  • Large wafer semiconductor device processing capability
  • Best selling price vs. device ­sensitivity in the industry
  • Latest technology in hermetic sealing and testing equipment is used as our standard processes
