X-ray sCMOS 16MP Detector (Lightly Cooled)

Lightly cooled compact high resolution X-ray imaging

Photonic Science high resolution X-ray imaging detector incorporates the latest, state-of-the-art sCMOS technology providing ultra-low read noise, making it the ideal solution for even the most demanding applications.

The 16MP sensor is coupled with a fibre optic plate with active areas up to 66.5mm square. This, combined with a scintillator, optimised to suit the x-ray energy of interest provides a high sensitivity and high resolution system.

This compact design, lightly cooled version of our standard range of 16MP cameras has the addition of brass shielding which limits direct detection of scattered x-rays and is optimised for short exposures typically less than 10 seconds.
