Becker & Hickl GmbH

Becker & Hickl GmbH is a pioneer in time-correlated single photon counting (TCSPC) technology, with a focus on photon counting. Established in 1993, the company introduced a proprietary time-correlated single-photon counting principle that significantly increased the speed of TCSPC devices, making them more than 100 times faster than existing models. In addition to this breakthrough, Becker & Hickl (bh) developed a multi-dimensional TCSPC process that captures photons not only in relation to time but also with respect to other parameters such as experiment time, wavelength, and spatial coordinates. Their product range includes TCSPC devices, picosecond diode lasers, detector modules, multi-spectral detector assemblies, and experiment control modules.

Becker & Hickl also offers a confocal fluorescence lifetime laser scanning microscope and FLIM upgrade kits for laser scanning microscopes from various manufacturers. Furthermore, the company supplies TCSPC modules for commercial time-domain optical tomography instruments. With an extensive global presence, the company has deployed over 1600 TCSPC systems worldwide, while also organizing five yearly workshops across the globe and distributing more than 1600 pages of TCSPC literature.

Headquartered in Germany, Becker & Hickl GmbH is a significant player in the industrial sector, continuously advancing photon counting technology and contributing significantly to the field. As they continue to expand and innovate, this company presents compelling opportunities for investors interested in cutting-edge photon counting advancements.
