LASER COMPONENTS Detector Group is equipped for future growth. After almost a year of construction, the company has moved into its new, significantly larger building in Chandler, Arizona (US). Optoelectronic components for key technologies such as medical technology and autonomous driving will be manufactured in the new building, which measures approximately 29,000 sq ft. In single-shift operation, the production facility comfortably accommodates 80 employees; approximately 200 in a three-shift rotation.
At over 12,000 sq ft, ISO class 10,000 cleanrooms occupy almost half of the facility. Air locks in the entrance area and in the passageways for material transfer ensure strict particle control. In addition, the floor, work stations, and cleanroom clothing are protected against electrostatic discharge in accordance with IEC 61340-5-1 and ANSI/ESD S20.20.
During the planning stages of the building, great importance was assigned to elements that have been tested and proven at the headquarters in Germany: spacious social rooms such as a cafeteria with open areas and ultra-modern offices that support working in small teams. The design of the facade is also unmistakable for LASER COMPONENTS.
The work performed at LASER COMPONENTS Detector Group includes all steps in the development and manufacture of semiconductor detectors. The company specialises in a wide variety of technologies. In addition to silicon and InGaAs avalanche photodiodes for the detection of the smallest amounts of light, their product range also includes pyroelectric detectors for flame detection and PbS/PbSe-, InAs, and InGaAs photodiodes, which are mainly used for gas measurement.
