Prime 95B Scientific CMOS Camera
Photometrics
Description
Prime 95B is the Scientific CMOS with extreme sensitivity using high Quantum Efficiency (QE) Backside Illumination (BSI), a first for Scientific CMOS cameras. The 95B’s sensor converts up to 95% of incident photons into a measurable signal.
Unlike microlens approaches to increasing QE, which lose effectiveness as objective magnification is increased, Prime 95B’s BSI sensor brings light into the pixel photodiode from behind, avoiding structures that reflect or absorb light. When combined with large 11µm pixels, Prime 95B can deliver over 300% more signal than other CMOS cameras at 100X magnification. More importantly, Prime 95B outperforms EMCCD cameras—with no excess noise that negates the benefit of using a high QE sensor, and additional limitations from
EM gain calibration, stability, expense, and sensor lifetime with a true 16-bit dynamic range, Prime 95B easily accomplishes what EMCCD cannot—detect weak and bright signals within the same image with photon-noise limited performance.
