Low light detection

Video Conversations on photodetectors (part 1) This podcast series will try to summarize key parameters to consider, so the selection process of photodetectors (photodiode, APD, SiPM, SPAD, and PMT) can be simplified.

Application PCR (polymerase chain reaction) See our recommended products for PCR machines or thermal cyclers

Quantum technology

Article 19 companies lighting up the quantum photonics sector Hamamatsu has been listed by The Quantum Daily as one of 19 companies considered to be most influential in the photonics industry within the quantum technology sector. We are happy to see the use of photonics expand in quantum applications, and are working on the next generation of devices and detectors as quantum applications emerge and evolve.
