ALEX-S CCD Camera Description

This series of highly sensitive, cooled cameras with vacuum flange is equipped with ultra-low noise 18-bit readout electronics and perfectly suited for spectroscopy applications in the VUV, EUV and X-ray range up to 20 keV. Due to the large pixel size, very high signal to noise ratios are possible. The CCD detectors deliver spectra and images with outstanding dynamic range. To find the best solution for your application, we offer various flange types and sensor technologies with quantum efficiencies up to 98%.

• Up to 98% peak quantum efficiency
• Ultra-deep cooling to -100 °C
• Formats for the ALEX-I series include:
  • 1024 X 256 pixel format (26 um pixel size); Image Area: 26,6 mm × 6,7 mm
  • 2048 X 512 pixel format (13.5 um pixel size); Image Area: 27,6 mm × 6,9 mm
• 18-bit dynamic range
• Multi-MHz Readout
• Max. full well capacity of 700 ke⁻
• Scientific low-noise CCD sensors
• Compact camera design
• USB 3.0 & Gigabit Ethernet connection
