Desktop Single Photon Detection System by Pixel Photonics with waveguide integrated SNSPD

Our Desktop Format: focussing on precision

Our SNSPD Desktop Format comes with the cryostat and electronics combined at the table top with a separated helium compressor. Connected by flex-lines, it’s a very efficient and especially precise system as the separation reduces heat, noise and vibrations at the detector.
