Security & Defence

Saes has been serving the Telecom, Security and Defence industries since their beginning: getters and dispenser cathodes are widely used in vacuum tubes for telecom applications.

Aerospace and Avionic industries are relying on getters from SAES to manufacture reliable laser and mechanical gyroscopes as well as absolute pressure sensors to assure  proper functionality of navigation systems to satellites, missiles and airplanes. 

Moreover, dispensers of alkaline metals and getters are used respectively in night vision systems and in infrared cameras to assure a reliable vision in civilian and defense and security applications.

Saes also provided hydrogen getter and dispensable getter composites for solid state microwave devices (based on GaAs and GaN) that are used for power amplification in telecom base stations, for avionics applications and for long haul optical fibers connections.
