The Optical Spectroscopy Division of Jobin Yvon has developed a novel liquid-nitrogen-cooled back-illuminated deep-depleted CCD detector.

The Optical Spectroscopy Division of Jobin Yvon has developed a novel liquid-nitrogen-cooled back-illuminated deep-depleted CCD detector The back illuminated deep depleted detector is ideal for low-light-level applications in the NIR region (500-1000nm) including Raman, photoluminescence and fluorescence spectroscopy

Its back-illuminated design offers increased quantum efficiency and sensitivity.

Etalon effects, which are commonly experienced in standard back-illuminated CCDs, are nearly eliminated due to the deep depletion architecture.

Features include a 1024 x 256pixel format, a NIR coated CCD chip with 26 x 26um pixel size, and an overall format of 26.6 x 6.7mm.

The detector is connected to either a CCD3000 or CCD3500 controller which is fully automated with SpectraMax software or LabView VIs.
