Newton 940 CCD Cameras | Andor

The Newton 940 spectroscopic CCD camera series utilizes a 1024 x 255 or 2048 x 512 array of 26 µm or 13.5 µm pixels, with thermoelectric cooling down to -100°C, resulting in negligible dark current and provides unrivalled performance for spectroscopic applications. The Newton CCD is an ideal tool for ultrafast UV, VIS or NIR spectroscopy (or all the above with the Dual AR-coating BEX2-DD technology!), such as 2D chemical mapping, online process monitoring or non-invasive medical diagnosis.

Features & Benefits:

Peak QE up to 95% – Visible-optimized ‘BV/BVF’, infrared-optimized ‘BR-DD’ and broadband UV-NIR ‘BEX2-DD’ model.
Fringe suppression technology as standard – Fringing greatly reduced (Deep-Depletion) or minimized (Back-Thinned ‘BVF’).
Extended range dual-AR option – Superior UV-NIR broadband QE.
TE cooling to -100°C – Critical for elimination of dark current detection limit – no inconvenience associated with LN2.
UltraVac™ – Critical for sustained vacuum integrity and to maintain unequalled cooling and QE performance, year-after-year.
Multi-Megahertz Readout – High repetition rates achievable with low noise electronics.
Crop Mode Operation – Up to 1,600 spectra per second rates.
Single UV-grade fused silica window – Best UV-NIR throughput performance, specific AR coating and wedge options available.
USB 2.0 Connection – Universal plug-and-play capability, ideal for laptop operation. Seamless operation alongside USB-based Shamrock spectrograph family.
Down to 13.5 x 13.5 µm pixels – Optimized pixel format for high resolution spectroscopy.
Software-selectable pre-amplifier gain – Choice of best SNR performance of dynamic range at the touch of a button.
Solis software for Spectroscopy – Comprehensive, user-friendly interface for simultaneous detector & spectrograph control.
Software Development Kit (SDK) – Ease of control integration into complex setups: Matlab, Labview, Visual Basic or C/C++.
