Scintacor supports a range of defence and security applications by converting the invisible to the visible across a broad spectral range, from X-ray imaging through to laser threat warning systems.
Scintacor’s phosphor coating technologies enable rapid, low-cost detection of otherwise invisible laser radiation by converting targeted wavelengths into visible signals.
These capabilities support laser warning systems for detecting rangefinders, designators, and illuminators, with coatings tailored to specific battlefield wavelengths and easily integrated into compact sensor platforms.
Scintacor supplies Li-6 enriched neutron detection screens and lithium-6 glass scintillators for high-sensitivity neutron detection with strong gamma discrimination.
These materials support securityand nuclear monitoring use cases including portal monitoring and special nuclear material detection.
Scintacor manufactures advanced scintillator and phosphor screens for digital X-ray imaging across defence and security applications.
Solutions support both high-energy transmission imaging of dense structures such as munitions and flash X-ray for high-speed events.
Scintacor’s infrared (IR) phosphor technology can enable compact optical receivers for drone communications by converting invisible IR laser excitation into visible emissions for free-space data links.
These phosphor-converted detectors can be integrated into lightweight optical receivers, allowing drones to receive modulated IR signals through the air rather than via tethered fibre. Free-space optical communication uses light propagating in air to carry information without physical cables, offering flexible, rapidly deployable links. This approach reduces infrastructure requirements, improves mobility, and enables high-bandwidth, interference-resistant communication uplinks from ground or relay nodes to drones in challenging or remote environments
Delivering advanced imaging, sensing, and detection technologies trusted by defence, security, and intelligence agencies globally.
