The tall, back-illuminated 1340 x 400 sensor of the PIXIS-400 is ideal for micro and multi-channel spectroscopy and offers ultimate fleixilbity for all spectroscopy applications. The camera features best in class broad-band QE and low dark current, due to deep thermoelectric cooling down to -70°C. All-metal, hermetically sealed design is guaranteed for the lifetime of the camera. This makes the PIXIS-400 the goto choice for for Raman spectroscopy, photoluminescence, fluorescence, and reflectance spectroscopy.

PIXIS – High-Performance, Low Noise CCD Cameras
Broad Range Sensitivity
The PIXIS offers the broadest wavelength coverage, from 120–1100 nm, for the widest variety of applications. With >95% quantum efficiency (QE) with selected CCDS, high QE in UV with UV enhanced CCD and enhanced sensitivity and reduced etaloning with eXcelon™ technology.
Unique Vacuum Technology
The PIXIS offers deep cooling to -90°C with air or liquid, providing ultra-low dark current for long exposure times. The single input window delivers maximum sensitivity with maintenance-free operation.
Enhanced Sensitivity With eXcelon™
eXcelon technology enhances the sensitivity of the PIXIS, delivering higher quantum efficiency and reduced etaloning.
