High Performance Cooled CCD Camera Systems
Apogee Instruments' new Alta Series cameras are available with a wide variety of CCDs for diverse applications: from 512 x 512 up to 4096 x 4096,
with 100Base-T Ethernet or USB 2.0 interface, with support for interline, full frame, and frame transfer CCDs, both front and back-illuminated.
How to Choose?
Back-illuminated CCDs are typically used for very low light applications due to their high quantum efficiency (QE). Kodak micro-lensed Blue Plus
CCDs (ME suffix on the part number) also have high peak QE, but much less overall QE than the back-illuminated CCDs. The UV enhanced versions
of the back-illuminated CCDs have the highest QE in the UV. Frame transfer CCDs and interline transfer CCDs can read out at higher frame rates
because they do not require electromechanical shutters. Large pixel CCDs have the highest dynamic range, but generally are not suitable for
microscopy.
