Princeton Instruments has unveiled its eXcelon deep-depletion
CCDs and cameras for low-light, near-infrared imaging and spectroscopy. Improvements
over standard deep-depletion technology include reduced etaloning and higher quantum
efficiency across a broader wavelength range, from 200 to 1100 nm. The new CCDs,
with pixel resolutions of 1340 x 100, 1340 x 400, 1024 x 1024 and 1340 x 1300, are
available in the company’s Pixis and Spec-10 deep-cooled, low-noise camera
platforms. The sensors deliver peak quantum efficiency of >95% and as much as
a 45% increase over a broader UV-NIR wavelength range. They are suitable for use
in live-cell imaging, confocal imaging, total internal reflection fluorescence,
Förster resonance energy transfer and superresolution techniques, including
stochastic optical reconstruction microscopy and photoactivated localization microscopy.
