NIR Quadrant PIN

The QP154 detector

First Sensor AG (Berlin, Germany), part of TE, has developed a large area NIR quadrant PIN which could play a pivotal role in defense technologies. The QP154 detector is a quadrant PIN photodiode with a large 14 mm active area for semi-active controllers in a 100% hermetically sealed and electrically isolated transistor outline TO package. The Si detector is optimized for the NIR and specifically 1 μm wavelengths, commonly used in defense applications in the laser seeker/detector head on missiles. The circular face of the QP chip is equally divided into four quadrants, and acts as the “eye” in the detector head, ensuring that the missile can “see” the targeting laser and hit the target with a high degree of accuracy.

Plastic mmWave System

The system guides mmWave radio signals through plastic tubing.

CEA-Leti (Grenoble, France) has developed a hybrid, ultra-fast, ultra-low latency technology that guides mmWave radio signals through flexible plastic tubing. Called H-Link, the low-cost, energy-saving system ensures Gb/s broadband connectivity that also overcomes the limits of copper wire and optical fiber, such as oxidation of metal and brittleness. In addition to being flexible and less sensitive to vibration and electromagnetism, H-Link’s wireless technology can transfer information over distances up to 10 meters at a speed of 15 Gb/s, with an average data transmission speed of 6 Gb/s over a little more than two meters. mmWave systems operate in frequency ranges from 30 to 300 GHz. The plastic-based system, which is much lighter than copper, uses one-tenth of the energy of copper and less than fiber-optic cable.
