Opto-semiconductors

Hamamatsu has been at the cutting edge of photonics technology for 65 years. In that time, Hamamatsu has developed and produced a wide range of opto-semiconductors such as photodiodes, photo ICs, image sensors, and LEDs, as well as mini-spectrometers and many other products using opto-semiconductors.
Our lineup of opto-semiconductors covers a broad spectrum from the infrared through the visible and ultraviolet regions, extending to X-rays and even high energy particles. These are widely used in many fields ranging from scientific measurements, medical diagnosis, communications, and consumer electronics as well as in-vehicle applications.
In the days ahead, besides improving our semiconductor process and mounting/packaging technologies to make them more sophisticated, we will fully utilize MOEMS (micro-opto-electro-mechanical systems) technology that merges photonics technology with MEMS technology to develop opto-semiconductors with even higher sensitivity, speeds, and functions.
