The Accords project was a success for Vigo Photonics S.A., as the technology for positioning the sensing structure and preamplifier in a hermetic enclosure and testing their optoelectric performance was upgraded. The following integrated optoelectronic modules were put into production:

Module series UHSM-10.6

An infrared detection module with a high-detection D* photodiode (≥4.5-108cm-Hz1/2/W) over a range of 3.0 - 12.0 µm and based on HgCdTe technology that has been positioned with a broadband ultrafast (≥1GHz), linear, impedance-matched transimpedance preamplifier.

Module series UHSM-I-10.6

An infrared detection module with an optical immersion photodiode with high D* detection (≥1.5-109cm-Hz1/2/W) over a range of 3.0 - 12.0 µm and based on HgCdTe technology, which has been positioned with a broadband ultrafast (≥700MHz), linear, impedance-matched transimpedance preamplifier.

In the project, VIGO Photonics developed an integrated optoelectronic detector module for a coherent dispersive spectrophotometer. The task required modification of the existing assembly technology in which the most important was the development of technology for positioning the detection structure and the transimpedance preamplifier in a single housing, as well as the testing of the detector itself and the entire detection module. The project resulted in the development of an integrated optoelectronic detector module in a hermetic housing for a coherent dispersive spectrometer, developed by foreign partners as part of their part of the international Accords project (Alpes Lasers SA and Mirico LTD). The ability of such a spectrometer to detect small quantities of gases in the petrochemical industry will contribute to reducing the risk of environmental pollution as a result of accidents and thus improving plant safety as well as environmental protection. The deployed optoelectric sensing module, together with an integrated, high-speed ~1GHz, linear, impedance-matched transimpedance preamplifier, has become part of the VIGO portfolio and has been launched as a new product.

Who is going to benefit from the project results?

Invisible infrared radiation is intensely emitted by all surrounding objects. It contains comprehensive information about the objects that emit, propagate, absorb and reflect - the geometry of these objects, their temperature, chemical composition and many other properties. Many applications use lasers from Alpes Lasers SA and detectors from VIGO System S.A., e.g. gas and chemical analysers, open-air optical communications, laser spectroscopy. Their uses include, for example, monitoring and controlling engine emissions, assessing fuel quality, medical applications, e.g. for breath analysis, air purity testing. In the Active Coherent Dispersive Spectrometer resulting from this project, Mirico LTD used lasers from Alpes Lasers SA and detectors from VIGO Photonics SA. The detectors and modules produced are destined for the foreign market, including the USA, the European Union, China, Japan and other countries. Cooperation with foreign partners has resulted in an increase in the international competitiveness of Polish science.
