Breakthrough Precision.
Shaping the Future of IR Sensing.

FTIR is one of the most versatile and widely used techniques for molecular characterization. Users of FTIR must often choose between high-detectivity cryogenic detectors or lower-performance room-temperature detectors. Our cryogen-free detector alleviates this tradeoff by delivering exceptional precision at room temperature, greatly reducing cost without sacrificing performance.

With the rapid advancement of Quantum Cascade Lasers (QCLs), laser spectroscopy in the mid-IR region—known as the molecular fingerprint region due to its rich molecular absorption features—has become increasingly feasible. Our nanomechanical resonator provides unmatched room-temperature detectivity in such mid-IR region (2.5 to 12 μm) which enable ultra-high laser spectroscopy resolution.

Astronomical spectroscopy analyzes light from celestial bodies to reveal their composition, temperature, motion, and evolution. Covering wavelengths from IR to THz, it’s essential for studying planets, stars, and galaxies. Our nanomechanical detector offers a strong advantage in the mid- to far-IR, matching the performance of liquid-helium-cooled bolometer while requiring only liquid nitrogen cooling.

Mid-IR, long wavelength (>2.5 μm) lasers are increasingly used in both academia and industry, making precise monitoring of laser power output essential. Unlike traditional pyroelectric power meters, our nanomechanical detector supports continuous-wave (CW) detection with a much higher damage threshold and improved precision. This makes it an ideal modern laser power meter, especially for high-power mid-IR lasers.
