Perkin Elmer has announced its agreement with Max Planck Innovation for the licensing of its low cross-talk solid state silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) technology.
SiPM offers high photon detection efficiencies, short response time and low power consumption, making it applicable to a variety of low light level applications.
The technology was developed by a group led by Prof Boris Dolgoshein from the Moscow State Engineering Physics Institute (MEPhI), and advanced through the cooperation of MEPhI and Prof Masahiro Teshima and Dr Razmik Mirzoyan from the Max Planck Institute for Physics in Munich.
Perkin Elmer's photon detection solutions include Si and Ingaas avalanche photodiodes and PIN photodiodes for high performance applications as well as channel photomultipliers for molecular detection in analytical applications and clinical diagnostics.
