Applied Scintillation Technologies has developed GOrg, a high-efficiency coating that is part of the ExtendUV range and that improves and extends the sensitivity of photodiode linear arrays, CMOS devices and CCDs into the UV wavelengths. The coating increases the spectral range of front-illuminated CCDs from 400 to 200 nm, also improving the quantum efficiency of the array. Above 400 nm, the coating becomes virtually transparent and has no effect on the quantum efficiency of the CCD in the visible or IR regions. Optional nonreflecting high-transmission UV windows can be fitted. The coatings can be used with spectrophotometers, photometers, digital cameras for microscopes, and general imaging systems.
