Request InfoonsemiON Semiconductor has announced the 8-MP KAI-08052 image sensor, providing twice the sensitivity in near-infrared (NIR) wavelengths as the company’s standard Interline Transfer CCD pixel design. The CCD pixel design used in the KAI-08052 extends the electron capture region deeper in the silicon to better capture electrons generated by long wavelength photons. This deeper pixel well improves detection of NIR wavelengths by up to a factor of two, depending on the specific wavelength studied. With the well structure isolating the photodiodes from each other, this increase in NIR...See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPRODUCTSVision Spectra Autumn 2023 IssueHyperspectral CameraSpecim’s next-generation NIR line-scan hyperspectral camera, the Specim GX17, features a maximum frame rate of 800 Hz with 480 spatial pixels, which is 50% more than conventional QVGA...Vision Spectra Autumn 2023 IssueSWIR LensThe Ophir® SWIR and NIR 25-250 mm f/5.5 (NFOV) f/4.0 wide-field-of-view continuous zoom lens from MKS Instruments Inc. is a compact, rugged device for 5- and 10-µm SXGA and 15-µm VGA...Photonics.com 1/23/2024Radiometric DetectorsThe Silux-37xx Series from Gigahertz-Optik in collaboration with Oculus Photonics and HENSOLDT Optronics GmbH are silux radiometers made to measure ambient lighting conditions in an unambiguous...Photonics.com 10/13/20233D Laser Line ProfilersThe Gocator® 2600 Series from LMI Technologies are 4K+ resolution smart 3D laser line profile sensors and can be used for applications in food processing, building materials, automotive, rubber...ARTICLESPhotonics Spectra August 2023 IssueSensor Uses Color Encoding for 3D Scene ReconstructionResearchers at the National University of Singapore (NUS) developed a light-field sensor that detects 3D light fields across the x-ray to visible light spectrum.
