Hamamatsu Photonics K.K. Solid State Division
Hamamatsu Solid State Division (Japan), develops and manufactures photodiodes, photo ICs, image sensors, and other opto-semiconductor devices.
The Solid State Division has explored physical properties that determine opto-semiconductor performance since the early days in this field and succeeded in creating a variety of product line-ups.
Their opto-semiconductor products incorporate unique semiconductor process technology, mounting & packaging technology, and MEMS technology and cover a wide wavelength range from infrared, visible, ultraviolet, all the way to X-rays and high energy rays.
These products are used in wide-ranging fields including medical care, scientific measurement, communications, consumer electronics, and vehicle on-board electronics. Hamamatsu will continue to pursue opto-semiconductor technology, always staying one step ahead, to meet the increasingly sophisticated needs of the future.
