EM technology enables photoelectrons from each pixel to be multiplied on the sensor before readout, providing single photon sensitivity. The Newton EM platform combines a 1600 x 200 (or 1600 x 400) array of 16 µm pixels, thermoelectric cooling down to -100°C for negligible dark current, 3MHz readout and USB 2.0 plug-and-play connectivity to provide unrivalled performance for spectroscopic applications. The dual output amplifiers allow software selection between either a conventional High Sensitivity or Electron Multiplying outputs to suit a broad range of photon regime conditions. This makes the Newton EMCCD the ideal choice for ultrafast chemical mapping applications e.g. SERS, TERS or luminescence mapping.

EM sensor technology - <1e- read noise

Fringe suppression technology as standard (970-BVF only) - Fringing minimized for NIR applications

Multi-Megahertz Readout - High repetition rates achievable with low noise electronics

TE cooling to -100°C - Negligible dark current without the inconvenience of LN2

UltraVac™ - Permanent vacuum integrity, critical for deep cooling

16 x 16 µm pixel size - Optimized pixel size for achievement of high resolution

Dual output amplifiers - Software select between either a conventional High Sensitivity output (for low light applications) or an Electron Multiplying output (for single photon sensitivity

Crop Mode Operation - Achieve the highest possible spectral rates of over 1,500 spectra per second

Simple USB Connection - USB connection direct from back of camera – no controller box required!

Solis software for Spectroscopy - Comprehensive, user-friendly interface for simultaneous detector & spectrograph control

Software Development Kit (SDK) - Ease of control integration into complex setups: Matlab, Labview, Visual Basic or C/C++
