Balanced Optical Receivers

Balanced Optical Receivers

For noise sensitive experiments, we offer balanced photoreceivers that suppress up to 50 dB of laser / source intensity noise in experimental set-ups.  These balanced optical receivers with two well-matched photodetectors can eliminate the need for lock-in amplifiers and can make all of the difference when you are trying to detect a small signal in applications like absorption spectroscopy, or heterodyne detection.  Please see our Balanced Detector Guide for additional information.
