- Powersafe Technology Corp. Powersafe Technology Corp. (PSFT), through its wholly owned subsidiary Amplification Technologies Inc., develops and sells multichannel discrete amplification photon detector (DAPD) technology solutions for low-level signal detection applications; its core products include discrete amplification photon detectors, thermoelectrically cooled DAPD, near infrared discrete amplification photon detectors, near infrared DAPD thermoelectrically cooled modules, DAPD room temperature modules, DAPD stabilized temperature modules, DAPD device evaluation modules, and thermoelectrically cooled DAPD device evaluation modules; the company also offers DAPD Geiger-mode avalanche photodiode arrays, such as 5x5 (25-pixel) and developing 10x10 configurations with pre-amplifiers and active thermo-electric cooling for enhanced integration. DAPD technology, based on a multi-cell semiconductor design with monolithic negative feedback, enables single-photon sensitivity, wide dynamic range, high repetition rates up to 50MHz, and always-on operation without dead-time, serving markets including PET scanners, medical imaging, fluorescence detection, high energy physics, spectroscopy, biological sensors, ladar and lidar, homeland security, confocal microscopy, and night vision, with eye-safe operation in the near infrared range. Founded in 2000 and headquartered at 1400 Coney Island Avenue in Brooklyn, New York, the company operates primarily in the United States with a focus on scientific instrumentation, medical diagnostics, and defense sectors. No major acquisitions, partnerships, funding rounds, new product launches, or strategic shifts have been reported for Powersafe Technology Corp. in the last 1-2 years as of late 2025; the firm remains a development-stage entity traded on OTC markets with minimal recent public disclosures.
