Andor’s new iDus 416 platform boasts a unique combination of very low dark noise and very high QE, offering unrivalled sensitivity in the near-infrared. This makes it the ideal detector for NIR Raman and Photoluminescence, reducing greatly acquisition times and removing the need for inconvenient LN2 cooling.
Low dark current
Peak QE up to 95%
30 mm wide sensor
TE cooling down to -95ºC
15 µm pixels
Overview
The unique 2000 x 256, 15 µm pixel array allows extended, broadband and high resolution spectral acquisition, while the fringe suppression technology virtually eliminates the optical etalonning at the higher wavelengths.
With its compact form factor and USB 2.0 connectivity, the iDus 416 can be seamlessly integrated to Shamrock USB 2.0 spectrographs and controlled from a laptop. Andor’s UltraVac™ technology carries a unique track record when it comes to performance and reliability, maintaining superb performance year after year for both Research users and industrial integrators.
Features
Low dark current - 10x better than Back-Illuminated Deep-Depletion NIMO sensors, best SNR in the NIR.
Peak QE up to 95% - Best detection capability in the NIR.
15 µm pixels - Ideal for high resolution spectroscopy.
30 mm wide sensor - Superior simultaneous band-pass capture
Fringe suppression technology as standard - Optical etalonning virtually eliminated.
TE cooling down to -95°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.
USB 2.0 connection - Ideal for laptop operation.
