Product news

Hamamatsu introduces the C11440-50B board level camera for OEM scientific and industrial customers. It has a unique scientific CMOS sensor and is designed to deliver high performance and cost-effective imaging in a small, board-level format.

This scientific CMOS camera for OEM customers is ideal for a wide variety of scientific and industrial applications including semiconductor inspection, failure analysis, x-ray scintillator readout, fluorescence microscopy and high speed / high resolution imaging.

The new C11440-50B delivers 45 frames / sec at the full resolution of 1920 x 1440 pixels (3.63 x 3.63 micron) and a wide dynamic range of 4500:1. These features allow the capture of high quality images at fast speeds, even in low light conditions.

Customers who wish to investigate low-intensity samples or fast moving targets can now achieve results which have not been possible with traditional machine vision or CMOS cameras.

IEEE1394-b interface (FireWire b) offers a low-cost communication and power interface, while the camera’s various external trigger options allow seamless integration with the OEM customer’s equipment.

Fluorescence SpectroscopyFluorometers and spectrofluorometers (also called fluorescence spectrometers) are used to measure the intensity and wavelength of fluorescent light emitted from a sample after excitation by illumination. Spectrofluorometers utilize monochromators to select the desired wavelengths, whereas filter fluorometers employ a set of filters. Spectrofluorometers for measuring steady-state fluorescence and lifetime fluorescence (or time-resolved fluorescence) are available, as well as fluorescence microscopes and microplate readers.

X-Ray diffractometers (XRD) are superior instruments in elucidating the dimensional atomic structure of crystalline materials, including powders, thin films and single crystals. For large unit cells or ordered macromolecules, consider small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). X-ray spectroscopic techniques include X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), both providing simple and accurate methods for determining the elemental composition of a material. Energy dispersive (EDXRF) and wavelength dispersive (WDXRF) XRF spectrometers are available, as well as handheld/portable devices. High-resolution, 3D microstructure characterization of materials can be achieved with X-ray microscopes combining sub-micron resolution imaging with 3D computed tomography.

Lab equipment for light microscopy includes confocal microscopes, fluorescence microscopes, zoom and stereo microscopes. Microscope slides and imaging reagents are available for visualizing samples, as well as various microscope stages and incubators for large or temperature-sensitive samples.

At the core of a scintillation counter is a sensor and detector, where the sensor is typically a scintillator crystal. Scintillation also includes liquid scintillation, radiometers and particle counters. Key features of scintillator counters include high resolution, automated multi-detection and high counting efficiency.sCMOSsCMOS Camera
