Photonics business roundup: April 2022

Lee Dubay

Let’s recap all the photonics business news that was announced in April 2022.

CMOS camera detects weak signals in scientific research use

The Retiga E7 7 Mpixel CMOS camera offers 2.2 e- read noise and dark current of 0.02 e-/s.

EMCCD cameras have use in low-light imaging for the life sciences

Back-illuminated Evolve EMCCD camera models with pixel sizes of 10, 13, and 16 μm provide sensitivity with >95% quantum efficiency.

Teledyne Photometrics scientific CMOS camera offers correlated multisampling

The Prime BSI Express scientific CMOS camera has USB 3.2 Gen 2 connectivity and 95% quantum efficiency to maximize signal detection.

FIGURE 1. A comparison (a) of the signal-to-noise ratio vs. photon intensity for two types of Zyla cameras made by Andor Technology to that of the company’s iXon back-illuminated electron-multiplying CCD (EMCCD) shows that the EMCCD is best for the lowest photon rates, including single photon counting, while sCMOS takes over for higher (but still very low) photon rates). The quantum efficiency (QE) of Andor’s Zyla cameras is optimized for use with a range of fluorophores (b).
