Response of Silicon
Photodetectors
The HEMT-3301 and HEMT-1001
are infrared emitters, using a
mesa structure GaAs on GaAs
infrared diode, IRED, optimized
for maximum quantum efficiency
at a peak wavelength of 940 nm.
The HEMT-3301 and HEMT-1001
emitters are untinted, undiffused
plastic packages with mediumwide radiation patterns. These
Package Dimensions
medium-wide and wide radiation
patterns eliminate the beam
focusing problems that are
encountered with emitters that
have narrow radiation patterns.
Applications include optical
transducers, optical part
counters, smoke detectors, covert
identification, paper tape and
card readers, and optical
encoders.

Notes:
1. Radiant intensity at ambient temperature Ie(TA ) = Ie(25°C) + (∆Ie/∆T) (TA - 25°C)/100.
2. Peak wavelength at ambient temperature: λPEAK(TA ) = λPEAK(25°C) + (∆λ/∆T) (TA - 25°C).
3. θ1/2 is the off-axis angle from emitter centerline where the radiant intensity is half the on-axis value.
4. Approximate radiant flux output within a cone angle of 2θ: φ e(2θ) = [φe(θ)/I e(0)] Ie (TA); φ e(θ)/Ie(0) obtained from Figure 8 or 9.
