Detector Consultancy
Xcam offers detector consultancy services, including to selection,
characterisation and optimisation of CCD detectors. Please contact
us for further details. We have strong links with CCD chip manufacturers
such as e2v technologies as well as the Centre for Electronic Imaging at Brunel
University, Leicester University, the
Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) and
the European Space Agency (ESA). These academic and industrial
links allow us to retain our innovative engineering capability
and access facilities around the world.

Xcam also have wirebonding facilities allowing us to handle bare chips if needed. The wirebonding facility is shown in the image below
along with two images of specially-packaged CCD62 devices, prepared by Xcam for successful trials of an X-ray spectroscopy application
in a Scanning Electron Microscope. Further information about this application can be found in the 'X-ray Spectroscopy with a CCD Detector' application note
on the Application Notes page.
