International Radiation Detectors
(IRD), Torrance, CA, was formed
in July 1991 to manufacture absolute devices for measurement
of visible, UV, XUV, EUV and soft x-ray photons. The primary
activity of IRD is to design, manufacture and sell
semiconductor radiation sensors to detect photons and other
particles.
One hundred percent internal carrier collection efficiency
silicon photodiodes have been developed and commercialized
by obtaining funds through Small Business Innovation
Research (SBIR) grants/contracts from U.S. Department of
Commerce, Department of Energy and National Institute of
Health. Presently, IRD is the only company in the world
manufacturing and marketing stable silicon photodiodes for
detection of vacuum ultraviolet and extreme ultraviolet
photons.
Due to the unparalleled quantum efficiency stability and
radiation hardness of IRD photodiodes, they have been
successfully used in European SOHO and Coronas-Photon,
American SNOE, SORCE, GOES, TIMED and EOS solar space
instrumentation. IRD is the only NIST approved vendor for
silicon photodiode transfer standards in 5 nm to 250 nm
spectral region.
