ANDOR an Oxford Instruments company Andor’s Zyla sCMOS camera platform offers high speed, high sensitivity and high resolution imaging and spectroscopy performance. The remarkably light and compact, thermoelectrically cooled design, integrates perfectly into both laboratory and OEM applications alike. Zyla is ideally suited to many cutting edge experiments that push the boundaries of speed and sensitivity. Feature Benefit 5.5 & 4.2 megapixel sensor formats and 6.5 pm Extremely sharp resolution over a 22 mm (Zyla 5.5) and 19 mm (Zyla 4.2 PLUS) diagonal field of view. Ideal pixels for astronomy,...

Zyla sCMOS has become a well established detector amongst physicists, biophysicists and astronomers, the advanced combination of speed, sensitivity and dynamic range enabling new ground to be broken. Performance & Adaptability – Dual Amplifier – novel pixel architecture means you don’t need to pre-select gain. Access lowest read noise and full well depth simultaneously. – 1000 fps – Access extremely fast frame rates through user definable Region of Interest control, suited to many applications within the physical sciences. – PU Express – for real time processing. G – Global Shutter – Zyla 5.5...

Rolling & Global Shutter The Zyla 5.5 uniquely offers both Rolling and true Global Shutter exposure modes. This provides superior application and synchronization flexibility and the ability, through global exposure, to closely emulate the familiar ‘Snapshot’ exposure mechanism of interline CCDs. Key Benefits of True Global Exposure – NO Spatial Distortion – avoiding the spatial distortion risk of rolling exposure – Tight syncing to peripheral switching devices – Higher Signal to Noise due to reduced dead time – the entire exposure cycle can be used – Simplicity – all the benefits of an ‘interline...

sCMOS or EMCCD? Since the market introduction of sCMOS technology by Andor, the question of the performance comparison against the more established Electron Multiplying CCD (EMCCD) has been common. Being a very fast, low noise technology, sCMOS does hold some potential to offer an alternative technology to these single photon sensitive detectors across some applications and techniques, including cold atoms imaging or fast spectral chemical mapping. Whilst the read noise of sCMOS is very low compared to CCDs, EMCCD technology holds the distinct advantage of being able to practically eliminate...
