A reliable good quality scientific CCD camera

 

Average Rating 4.0

Application Area:

Spectroscopy

We have been utilizing the Andor Newton CCD camera for the past 15 years, and it has consistently delivered high-quality performance with minimal noise and easily adjustable parameters. When utilizing full vertical binning, we can capture and transfer spectra at rates approaching 1 kHz, which is particularly useful for our applications. One small drawback is that the camera appears to be particularly sensitive to cosmic rays, which can result in occasional artifacts. However, these artifacts are typically confined to a few pixels and can be easily removed, making them manageable. Overall, the Newton CCD has proven to be a reliable and versatile tool for our research.

Application Area:

Spectral measurements in multi-channel mode in which all spectral range is accumulated simultaneousl

Spectroscopic characterization of the building blocks of plasmonic photovoltaic cells (namely, metal nanoparticles, nanowires, semiconductor islands at the surface) is important for their characterization and prediction of device performance. However, optical spectroscopy of nanostructures is a challenging task. Alignment of light collection system is sensitive to mechanical instability and thermal drifts, especially in the case of single particle spectroscopy. In addition, optical characteristics of nanostructures can change under irradiation. Thus, spectral measurements of nanostructured metal/semiconductor structures being studied in the framework of our projects have to be performed in multi-channel mode in which all spectral range is accumulated simultaneously. CCD camera, Model: Newton DU920P-BU2 produced by Andor Technology Ltd.,UK solves the problem of multi-channel spectroscopy with high efficiency.
