Energy Resolution

The gold standard for definitive isotope identification

Real gamma-ray spectra can get crowded. When peaks of interest sit a keV or two apart, HPGe resolves them cleanly while NaI smears them into one ambiguous hump. That's the difference between an answer and a guess.

Portability

HPGe performance in a robust, lightweight package

PHDS detectors are complete, turnkey systems: detector, cooling, electronics, and software in one user-friendly package, nothing else to source. Deploy by hand, integrate into a larger system, or install in a shield for the lab. No liquid nitrogen, no cryogen logistics, industry-leading cool-down.

Software

Acquire, identify, and quantify

Our tools span qualitative isotope identification to quantitative waste assay in complex geometries. Because we own the codebase, we adapt or extend them to your measurement problem.

Made by PHDS

We build what we sell

Every PHDS detector is designed, built, and tested under one roof, hardware and software, by a single small team. No resellers, no support tiers - when you have a question, you reach the engineers who built your system and wrote its analysis software.
