New advance in imaging technology, sCMOS, promises to facilitate scientific applications

Scientific CMOS (sCMOS), an advanced imaging technology, was the subject of a major announcement at this week's Laser World of Photonics (Munich, Germany, June 15-18). The new technology offers a number of useful features that operate simultaneously: extremely low noise, rapid frame rates, wide dynamic range, high quantum efficiency (QE), high resolution, and a large field of view. It represents a cooperative effort among three photonics companies: Andor Technology (Belfast, Northern Ireland), Fairchild Imaging (Milpitas, CA) and PCO (Kelheim, Germany) and has implications for numerous applications including biomedical research, astronomy, and security and defense.
