Hamamatsu Unveils CCD Image Sensor with Laser Processing Technology

Hamamatsu has launched the S11500-1007 back-thinned CCD that features an IR-enhanced image sensor to provide optimum performance for Raman spectroscopy.

Hamamatsu IR CCD

The patented laser processing technology in the CCD offers high NIR sensitivity to identify Raman emissions with long wavelengths. A MEMS structures can be fabricated on the rear side of the back-thinned CCD by utilizing Hamamatsu's laser processing technology.

The CCD, with a pixel resolution of 24x24 µm, is designed to offer a high quantum efficiency of 40% at 1000 nm and a broad range of spectral response from 200 to 1100 nm.

The versatile device also functions as a linear image sensor for the binning process. The IR-enhanced image sensor enables users to achieve higher signal processing speed and higher signal-to-noise ratio than other approaches where signals are added digitally using an external circuit. The S11500-1007 is suitable for use with Hamamatsu's C7040 multichannel detector head.
