With this optimisation you can use PSDs as you would with a visible or IR laser source for position detection of UV lasers and other UV light sources. Any of our PSDs can be optimised for UV detection, allowing you to use any size from 2.5mm to 60mm (1 dimensional device) and 2mm2 to 45mm2 to suit your application.
PSDs are analogue devices which operate according to the Lateral Effect Photodiode principle, displaying excellent position resolution (which is determined by the system signal-to-noise ratio).
