		PRODUCT OVERVIEW A Single-Photon Detectors For Every Wavelength IDQ offers a broad range of single-photon detectors based on avalanche photodiodes featuring outstanding performance and reliability for every wavelength. Silicon avalanche photodiode module: 350 - 900nm InGaAsP/InP avalanche photodiode module: 900 - 1150nm InGaAs/InP avalanche photodiode module: 900 - 1700nm >> Read more >> Visit the Scientific Instrumentation Overview page

		CUSTOMER FOCUS Particle Sizing using the id100 Single-Photon Detector Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) is a technique commonly used to determine the size of small particles in a solution. It is also known as Photon Correlation Spectroscopy (PCS) or Quasi-Elastic Scattering (QELS). The measurement of the light intensity scattered by particles is used to evaluate their size. In applications where the scattered intensity is low, single-photon sensitivity is required. >> Read more

		NEWS IDQ reorganizes in three business units IDQ has reorganized its activities in three separate business units: network encryption, scientific instrumentation and random number generators. This new organization will allow to better serve the specific needs of customers in these different markets. >> Read more

		NEWS A fresh look at IDQ! IDQ refreshes its corporate identity To emphasize its recent reorganization into three business units, IDQ changed its logo and corporate identity. >> Read more

		FROM THE LAB Quantum Network In Operation Since 1 Year Quantum key distribution is a technology that allows to exploit the laws of quantum physics to secure optical networks. In April 2009, IDQ deployed the SwissQuantum pilot quantum key distribution network in Geneva. This network has been in operation for one year, which corresponds to a cumulated time of three years, and will run until the end of 2010. >> Read more

		NEWS Quantis goes PCI Express! IDQ announces the launch of a PCI Express version of its Quantis random number generator to make it compatible with newer servers and computers. The new card is a low profile device, so that it fits in all platforms. This new development will strengthen the position of Quantis as the reference true random number generator for applications in cryptography or online gaming. >> Read more

		CUSTOMER FOCUS Secure eVoting using Quantis “One citizen - one vote” is the central axiom of democracy. To guarantee this in the cyberworld, the State of Geneva relies on a quantum random number generator built by ID Quantique to produce unique identifiers guaranteeing the voters’ anonymity and the vote security. This innovative solution was offered last weekend to 60’000 citizens who had the possibility to cast their vote over the Internet in the framework of the 14th official online ballot held in Geneva on March 7th 2010. >> Read more
