SPECTROSCOPY GROUP Now Powered by LightField™ PIXIS: 100 1340 x 100 The PIXIS series from Princeton Instruments (PI) are fully integrated, low noise cameras with a 1340 pixel format designed for quantitative scientific optical spectroscopy applications. Based on PI’s exclusive XP cooling technology, PIXIS cameras offer thermoelectric cooling down to -80°C, with an all-metal, hermetically sealed design and the industry’s only lifetime vacuum guarantee. High QE and ultra low-noise electronics make the PIXIS series of cameras ideal for demanding, low light applications such as Raman spectroscopy, photo- and electroluminescence, fluorescence and reflectance spectroscopy. Princeton Instruments’ exclusive eXcelon® technology delivers the highest sensitivity available from the deep UV to the NIR, while suppressing the etaloning that occurs in conventional back-thinned devices. Dual speed operation at 100 kHz or 2 MHz enables these cameras to be used for either long acquisitions or fast kinetic studies. FEATURE BENEFITS eXcelon™ technology Increases detector sensitivity while suppressing etalon interference fringes observed in the NIR with conventional back-illuminated devices. Permanent vacuum Our all-metal brazed seals eliminate the outgassing that occurs with epoxy seals and allows us to offer the industry’s only lifetime vacuum guarantee. Low temperature operation minimizes dark current without the need for liquid nitrogen. Deep thermoelectric cooling Single fused silica vacuum window Minimizes reflection losses from the UV to the IR; Optional AR coating and wedge windows are available. 1340 x100 imaging array, 20 mm x 20 mm pixels Proprietary format with 2 mm height for rapid spectral acquisition; 20 mm pixel size offers the optimal combination of high resolution with dynamic range. Optional UV phosphor coatings TTL input and output and shutter control 100 kHz and 2 MHz digitization rates Enhances sensitivity throughout the UV to below 200 nm. External control and triggering. Choose low speed digitization for low noise or high speed for fast spectral acquisition. Dual amplifiers with software-selectable system gains High sensitivity amplifier reduces read noise floor for weak signals while a high capacity amplifier increases dynamic range. USB2.0 data interface Plug-and-play operation with desktops or laptops; Optional fiber optic interface for remote operation. Optional: LightField® (for Windows 8/7, 64-bit) Or WinView/Spec (for Windows 8/7/XP, 32-bit) Flexible software packages for data acquisition, display and analysis; LightField offers intuitive, cutting edge user interface, IntelliCal® and more. PICAM (64-bit) / PVCAM (32-bit) software development kits (SDKs) Compatible with Windows 8/7/XP, and Linux; Universal programming interfaces for easy custom programming. Applications: Raman Spectroscopy, Absorbance, Emission, Fluorescence and Reflectance Spectroscopy Page 1 of 6 PIXIS: 100 eXcelon Rev.
