                            CANBERRA Passivated, Implanted, Planar Silicon (PIPS) detectors
                            have proven themselves in thousands of applications worldwide. The
                            performance promised by modern PIPS technology has been realized
                            in alpha spectroscopy, beta detection and Continuous Air Monitors as
                            well as in wide-ranging nuclear physics and space experiments.

                            PIPS detectors were developed by CANBERRA. They are designed by CANBERRA
                            device engineers. They are manufactured by CANBERRA. They are tested,
                            packaged and shipped by CANBERRA. Finally they are backed by the full integrity
                            and resources of CANBERRA. Can you accept less from your detector supplier?
