Nanotech West is pleased to announced that a new Infrared Single Element Test Station (tool code PRB08) is now available for use in the Mid-Infrared Characterization and Application (MICA) lab (located in Room 117). This flexible setup is capable of a performing a variety of characterization tasks for opto-electronic devices including Dark Current, Spectral Response, and Quantum Efficiency. The backbone of this system is a 5ft x 8ft optical table with a suite of electronic measurement equipment including a ThermoNicolet 6700 FTIR, Keithley 428 Current Amplifier, Stanford Research Systems SR860 Lock-in Amplifier, Keithley 2450 SMUs, and a selection of blackbody sources. The system is configured to cover the majority of the infrared spectrum from approximately 1.4 microns to greater than 15 microns (SWIR, MWIR, and LWIR). Devices can be tested at room temperature or cooled to cryogenic temperatures utilizing a stationary closed-cycle cryostat or one of several portable pour-filled cryostats.
