Andor’s iDus InGaAs 1.7 array detector series provides the most optimized platform for Spectroscopy applications up to 1.7 μm. The TE-cooled, in-vacuum sensors reach cooling temperatures of -90°C where the best Signal-to-Noise ratio can be achieved.Indeed dark current will improve moderately below -90°C where scene black body radiation will dominate, while Quantum Efficiency of the sensor will be greatly impacted at these lower temperatures and lead to a lower Signal-to-Noise ratio.
Andor’s iDus InGaAs 2.2 array detector series provides the most optimized platform for Spectroscopy applications up to 2.2 μm. The TE-cooled, in-vacuum sensors reach cooling temperatures of -90°C where the best Signal-to-Noise ratio can be achieved.Indeed dark current will improve moderately below -90°C where scene black body radiation will dominate, while Quantum Efficiency of the sensor will be greatly impacted at these lower temperatures and lead to a lower Signal-to-Noise ratio.
