In digital radiography, charge-coupled device (CCD) detectors are utilized to transform x-ray photons indirectly into an electric charge (indirectly because the x-ray photons are first converted into light via a scintillating screen).
Direct exposure to the incoming x-ray photons allows for direct absorption (i.e., detection) of the photons in direct-detection cameras. Depending on the x-ray energy range, either a front- or back-illuminated, deep-depletion CCD or a back-illuminated CCD without anti-reflection (AR) coating is employed.
CCD in cameras makes it possible for them to capture visual data and turn it into an image or video. In other terms, they are digital cameras.
As a result, images no longer need to be shot on film in order to be viewable, enabling the usage of cameras in access control systems. CCD imagers continue to outperform CMOS in some industrial and research imaging applications.
Imaging in the near-infrared is one such application (700–1,000 nm). Compared to CMOS imagers, CCDs that are made expressly to be highly sensitive in the near-infrared are far more sensitive.
The global CCD X-RAY camera market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
The new ALEX CCD camera from Pembroke Instruments has been released for outstanding imaging and spectroscopic performance. during XUV, VUV, and X-Ray imaging.
The ALEX CCD product family, which is based on an original platform idea, provides a selection of scientific cameras with vacuum interface for imaging and spectroscopy in the VUV, EUV, soft, and hard X-ray spectrum.
The CCD sensor directly detects incoming photons. For the best signal detection of weak signals, all ALEX CCD cameras combine scientific CCD sensors with ultra-low noise circuitry.
To discover the ideal solution for your imaging or spectroscopic application, choose from a variety of spectrum sensitivities and flange kinds.
Peltier elements in multiple stages are used to cool the full-frame CCD sensors. The cameras offer a wide range of functionalities, such as adjustable binning operation, different trigger and synchronization modes, switchable gain via software, and temperature monitoring of the sensor and Peltier hot side.
