There are many types of photodetectors designed for detecting photons, particularly in low-light applications. Photodetectors can be broadly classified into semiconductor types, such as photodiodes and photoconductive cells (e.g., CdS cells), and vacuum tube types, like photomultiplier tubes.
Matsusada Precision manufactures and sells power supplies and modules for photodetectors used in analytical equipment, as well as embedded power supply devices essential for photon detection.
