Marana is Andor’s high performance sCMOS camera platform for Astronomy and Physical Sciences, featuring 95% Quantum Efficiency (QE) and market-leading vacuum cooling to -45 °C. The platform offers solutions for large field of view and high-speed imaging/spectroscopy.
95% QE & -45 °C cooling - most sensitive back-illuminated sCMOS available
4.2 Megapixel / up to 32mm sensor – perfect for astronomy
Up to 74 fps full frame (faster with ROI) – track fast events without smear
> 99.7% linearity – superb quantitative accuracy across full dynamic range
Vacuum longevity & quality – no moisture on sensor, no QE decay
Marana is Andor’s latest high performance sCMOS camera platform, ideal for diverse applications within the physical sciences such as astronomy, Bose Einstein Condensation, quantum optics, hyperspectral imaging, neutron tomography and fast spectroscopy. Both Marana models feature 4.2 Megapixel sensors, 95% Quantum Efficiency (QE) and market-leading vacuum cooling to -45 °C, making Marana the most sensitive back-illuminated sCMOS platform available. Andor’s unique capability to deliver the ultimate in sCMOS sensitivity means Signal to Noise can be optimized under light starved conditions, ideal for tracking smaller orbital objects, spectroscopic detection of trace concentrations and BEC fluorescence detection of discrete numbers of atoms/ions. Higher sensitivity also means that exposure times can be shortened, facilitating faster frame rate measurements of dynamic processes.
