RT-CSX-LN cameras are a family of spectroscopy array detectors for demanding scientific applications. All our cameras utilize high quality scientific grade CCD sensors. We offer a wide selection of chips including front and back illuminated, open electrode and deep depleted. We offer a choice of CCD sizes from 1025 x 128 to 2048 x 2048, designed with the demanding requirements of soft x-ray spectroscopy and laser spectroscopy in mind. Innovative designs such as optimization for various wavelengths allows for flexibility and ease of use. The system includes a choice of analysis software packages such Wave Metrics “IGOR”, or Digital Optics “V++” software, and can easily be configured to work with any 3rd party software.
Feature
Benefits
|
|
|
|
Up
to 10 MHz readout |
Fast
readout for multiple exposures |
|
16-bit
digitization |

maximum dynamic range - Read out speed can be adjusted to extend
dynamic range (slow) or focusing (fast) |
|
Back-illuminated
CCD |
Best
response for soft x-ray (1eV – 5KeV) |
|
Deep
Depleted FI CCD |
Best
response for higher energy (5KeV+) |
|
Binning |
Flexible
binning increases read out rate and dynamic resolution |
|
