-100°C Deep-Cooled CCD for Large Area Imaging
Andor’s iKon-L 936 is designed with scientic imaging in mind. The 2048 x 2048 array and
13.5 x 13.5 µm pixels combine to deliver a 27.6 x 27.6 mm active image area, TE cooled down
to -100°C. The iKon-L offers outstanding resolution, eld of view, sensitivity and dynamic range
performance. Ultimate sensitivity performance is achieved through combination of > 90% QE
(back-illuminated sensor), low noise readout electronics and exceptionally deep TE cooling.
iKon-L boasts a proprietary large area 5-stage TE cooler (4-stage optional), enabling
cooling of this large area sensor down to an unprecedented -100°C without the aggravation
of liquid nitrogen or compressed gas cooling, perfect for the longest of exposure times.
Such performance renders this camera ideal for low-light applications such as astronomy,
luminescence imaging and microtitre plate/biochip imaging, with ideal OEM adaptability and
support. USB 2.0 connectivity and multi-MHz readout options provide for ease of integration
and operation.
Features and Benets
• Broad wavelength coverage
Now available with BR-DD (red/NIR),
BEX2-DD (UV-NIR Broadband) and BU2
(UV/blue) sensor options
• TE cooling to -100°C
Critical for elimination of dark current
detection limit
• Fringe Suppression Technology™
NIR etaloning greatly reduced (BR-DD and
BEX2-DD sensor types)
• 4-speed readout up to 5 MHz
Slower readout for low noise, faster speeds
for dynamic processes and 5 MHz for
vizualization mode
