New Miniature Spectrometer Modules with High Sensitivity Back Thinned Ccds

Hamamatsu Photonics introduce the newest members of the TM spectrometers, the C10082CA and C10083CA. The new TM spectrometer modules expand on the existing Hamamatsu range and adopt a high sensitivity back thinned CCD specially designed to match the optical arrangement. The C10082CA is optimised for UV-VIS operation and works in the 200 nm to 800 nm waveband and the C10083CA operates from 320 nm to 1000 nm. The new modules provide higher sensitivity compared to other products on the market.

All of the modules consist of a palm-top size polychromator, which is integrated with optical elements. The back thinned CCD is optimised for the required wavelength range and comes with an image sensor driver circuit. The spectrometer module includes both sample software and an integrated USB interface. PC connection and data acquisition is quick and easy as the user can set measurement conditions, acquire and save data and can generate graphical displays.

The new miniature spectrometer modules are ideal for applications such as UV-VIS spectrometry, luminescence and fluorescence measurements, life science, DNA analysis, medical diagnostics, in-line product inspection and many more.
