PIXIS-XF Indirect Detection
The PIXIS-XF: 2048 series of fully integrated, low noise cameras utilizes front illuminated and back illuminated CCDs, and is designed for indirect imaging X-rays using specially designed phosphor screens and other lambertian sources.
The unique camera design, with a fiberoptic faceplate extended outside the vacuum, offers outstanding flexibility for optimizing system performance at any X-ray energy. Dual speed operation at 100 kHz or 2 MHz enables the camera to be used for steady state as well as high speed applications, while its 2048 x 2048 imaging array, 13.5 µm pixels(37 lp/mm), 100% fill factor, 1:1 fiberoptic ratio, ultra low-noise electronics, -30° C thermoelectric cooling with water, and its compact design make the PIXIS-XF ideal for worry-free operation in research and OEM environments.
FEATURES
BENEFITS
Back Illuminated CCD (2048B)
For highest sensitivity
Front illuminated CCD (2048F)
Affordable technology for moderate light level applications
Ultra low noise electronics
Best possible system performance for low light level applications
1:1 fiberoptic ratio*
Distortion and vignetting-free optical coupling
Deep thermoelectric water cooling
Low dark noise allows detection of faint signals. CoolCUBE II, a compact room
temperature coolant circulator, is required.
Custom phosphors*
Gd2O2S:Tb; Available for 8 keV and 17 keV; Resolution of 60 to 80 mm
Emission wavelength ~550 nm
2048 x 2048 imaging array, 13.5 x 13.5 µm pixels
