Photon Counting Detectors
PDM Series from Micro Photon Devices: Silicon Photon Counting Detector – 30ps timing resolution.
The PDM and PDF series photon counting detectors have a photon detection efficiency of 49% at 550nm and 30ps timing resolution. These modules have ultra low dark counts and low-power consumption making these modules very robust, ie: will not get damaged with high light levels.

SPC2 from Micro Photon Devices: Photon Counting Camera.
The SPC2 series single photon counting cameras are based on the new Single Photon Imaging Detector (SPID), which enables parallel single photon counting by means of a monolithic array of 1024 SPAD (32 rows by 32 columns) with integrated counting electronics.

Super Conducting Nanowires from Quantum Opus: Continuous mode operation, high detection efficiency.
Quantum Opus has developed Single Photon Counting detectors based on superconducting nanowires. The nanowires have >80% efficiency at 1550nm, and by tuning of the resonant cavity, the nanowires can achieve extremely high detection efficiency (greater than 85%) at target wavelengths between 700nm and 1300nm. In addition, they have low dark counts, fast timing resolution and count rates of 20Mcps. Quantum Opus provides a complete turn-key solution with a compact closed-cycle cryocooler that can support up to 16 detector channels. Systems with more channels are also available as custom designs.
