Hamamatsu Photonics K.K. (浜松ホトニクス株式会社, Hamamatsu Hotonikusu Kabushiki-Kaisha) is a Japanese manufacturer of optical sensors (including photomultiplier tubes), electric light sources, and other optical devices and their applied instruments for scientific, technical and medical use.
Our history began in 1953 under the name of Hamamatsu TV Co., which manufactured phototubes that converted light into electrical signals. In 1983, we adopted the name Hamamatsu Photonics and broadened our aim to further develop opto-electronic technology.
The official website of Hamamatsu Corporation whose mission is to advance science and industry through photonic technologies. Our products include optical sensors and components, cameras, light & radiation sources, lasers, and customized solutions.
Hamamatsu Photonics along with 3 universities of Shizuoka University, Hamamatsu University School of Medicine, and the Graduate School for the Creation of New Photonics Industries, signed the Photonics Declaration in Hamamatsu for establishing Hamamatsu as a preeminent photonics city.
The origins of Hamamatsu lie with Heihachiro Horiuchi, who had a dream of developing photoelectric devices. Horiuchi set up his business, Tokai Electronics Laboratory, in Hamamatsu City in 1948, and from there developed PV26 phototubes, which were used for automatic on/off switching of streetlights.
Hamamatsu Photonics has recently expanded into the medical and bio fields by using optics and X-ray technology to make inspection and testing equipment. In 1996, the company delivered 11,200 20-inch PMTs for Super-Kamiokande neutrino detectors.
