Open the catalog to page 1Andor's ZyLa sCMOS camera platform offers high speed, high sensitivity and high resolution imaging and spectroscopy performance. The remarkabLy light and compact, thermoelectrically cooled design, integrates perfectly into both laboratory and OEM applications alike. Zyla is ideally suited to many cutting edge experiments that push the boundaries of speed and sensitivity. 5.5 & 4.2 megapixel sensor formats and Extremely sharp resolution over a 22 mm (Zyla 5.5) and 19 mm (Zyla 4.2 PLUS) diagonal 6.5 pm pixels field of view. Ideal for astronomy, area scanning applications or multi-track...
Open the catalog to page 2Bose Einstein Condensation The QE profile of Zyla is very good in the red/NIR region, ideal for BEC of Rb. Adaptive Optics Accessing > 1000 fps using ROIs renders the Zyla an ideal Wavefront detector. Use with data splitter to enable direct data access. Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy Superb temporal resolution from small ROIs are excellent for accurately measuring diffusion coefficients. ZyLa sCMOS has become a well established detector amongst physicists, biophysicists and astronomers, the advanced combination of speed, sensitivity and dynamic range enabling new ground to be broken....
Open the catalog to page 3Rolling & Global Shutter The Zyla 5.5 uniquely offers both Rolling and true Global Shutter exposure modes. This provides superior application and synchronization flexibility and the ability, through global exposure, to closely emulate the familiar ‘Snapshot’ exposure mechanism of interline CCDs. Rolling & Global Shutter Mechanisms Rolling and true Global Shutter modes describe two distinct types of exposure and readout sequence. In rolling shutter, available in Zyla 4.2 PLUS and Zyla 5.5, different lines of the array are exposed at different times as the read out ‘wave’ sweeps through the...

Imaging Mode The array size may be defined (includes FCS modes) for either resolution or maximum speed. Multi-track Mode Up to 256 vertically binned tracks can be used for multi-track analysis without sacrificing speed. - - — • • • 7

Open the catalog to page 8sCMOS or EMCCD? Since the introduction of sCMOS technology by Andor, the question of the performance comparison against the more established Electron Multiplying CCD (EMCCD) has been common. Whilst the read noise of sCMOS is very low compared to CCDs, EMCCD technology holds the distinct advantage of being able to practically eliminate read noise, rendering them single photon sensitive. sCMOS offer a very fast, low noise technology, which holds potential as an alternative to single photon sensitive detectors across some applications and techniques, including cold atom imaging or fast...
