About
The CCD97 is a frame transfer, electron multiplying CCD sensor designed for extreme performance in high frame rate ultra-low light applications. The Teledyne e2v back-thinning process ensures high quantum efficiency over a wide range of wavelengths.
An electron multiplying CCD functions by having an extended readout register with variable gain from 1x to 1000x prior to voltage conversion in the output amplifier. This allows readout noise to be effectively eliminated while maintaining fast readout rates.
Typical applications: advanced microscopy, fast astronomy, quantum imaging.
