Description
Newton SY – High Energy Detection
Andor’s Newton SY series features a high-QE sensors for direct detection of soft X-ray photons. A convenient Berylium foil window blocks visible wavelengths with minimal ?Beam Hardening’ of X-ray energies. Variable readout rates enable data readout at up to 3 Megahertz, through the plug and play USB interface. The camera utilizes a 1024 x 255 (1024 x 256 for BR-DD model) or 2048 x 512 array of 26 x 26 m or 13.5 x 13.5 m pixels, with thermoelectric cooling down to -55°C, resulting in negligible dark current and provides unrivalled performance for spectroscopic applications.
