iXon3 897 Single Photon Detection EMCCD Camera


Highly popular 512 x 512 frame transfer back-illuminated EMCCD format, offering single photon detection capability combined with > 90% QE.

iDus 401 Spectroscopy CCD Series

Unequalled thermoelectric cooling down to -100°C, industry-lowest clock induced charge noise, operating at 35 frames/sec (full resolution). Andor’s ‘overclocked’ vertical shift capability offers distinct speed advantages and minimises vertical smear. EMCCD and conventional CCD readout modes provide heightened application flexibility.

The iXon3 897 single photon detection EMCCD camera benefits from an advanced set of user–requested features, including OptAcquire, Count Convert, Spurious Noise Filters, Cropped Sensor Mode, Signal Averaging and enhanced Photon Counting capability. Patented EMCAL™ and RealGain™ provide sustained quantitative EM gain calibration.
