products

cryogenics
Our most popular cryogenic system delivers temperatures below 1 Kelvin (-272ºC, -457ºF) without the consumption and running expense of liquid helium.

detectors
Our superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPDs) exhibit ultralow dark counts, sub-100ps jitter, and >90% quantum efficiency near 1550nm, and other wavelengths.

solutions
We deliver solutions to challenging scientific instrumentation problems brought to us by our customers. Research and development is the cornerstone of our company.
