BLAZE® High-Speed Cameras for Spectroscopy
High Sensitivity from Visible to NIR
The BLAZE is equipped with HS sensors patented with eXcelon technology, offering the highest visible-NIR quantum efficiency, with >90% QE at 450nm, 98% QE at 900nm and 75% at 1000nm. Ideal for Raman and photoluminescence spectroscopy, the BLAZE LD sensors minimize dark current optimal for low light applications.
High Speed
Having a readout speed of up to 16 MHz and customizable sensors the BLAZE is the fastest spectroscopic CCD available. The BLAZE delivers up to 1650 spectra per second of full vertical binning, over 14 times more than competitors, with up to 215 kHz spectral rate in kinetics mode.
Deep Cooling
Exceptional cooling capabilities with a multi-stage thermoelectric cooling system with custom-designed Peltier devices, the BLAZE can operate at temperatures of -95°C, 15°C lower than that of competitors. Permanent all-metal UHV seals allow for reliable long-term operation, providing BLAZE to reach TRUE temperatures of -100°C with 20°C liquid assist
