News & EOI Updates

New Premises

160 North State Road, Suite 203, Briarcliff Manor, NY

I’m happy to announce that as of July 1, 2011, EOI is now in a larger and more convenient space, still in Briarcliff. As you can see in this photo tour, it provides a much larger lab area as well as a library/storage area and a second office for visitors and perhaps a colleague.

EOI is very well equipped for electronic, photonic, and electro-optical design and prototyping, from the infrared to the ultraviolet and from DC to 40 GHz. As you can see from the equipment list, I have a very large and varied collection of optical, mechanical, and electronics parts of all sorts, that allows me to try new ideas out very quickly.

PH200 Nanowatt Photoreceiver

Besides info on do-it-yourself photoreceivers, I am introducing a new line of electro-optical products in cooperation with Highland Technology, a cutting-edge instruments company in San Francisco. The first product is a shot noise limited free space photoreceiver with quantum-limited sensitivity from 60 nW to 100 μW and an honest 1 MHz bandwidth (3 MHz on the 100 μW range). For photocurrents below a microamp, it’s significantly better than even the bootstrapped cascode, and it comes in a nice module that fits your setup easily and has normal normal 1/4-20 and M6 threaded mounting holes.
