nBn sensor technology allows higher operating temperatures with similar performance to InSb. This allows using smaller coolers with longer cooler lifetimes and lower power consumption. The nBn material long wave cutoff wavelength can be tuned from below 2 µm to longer MWIR wavelengths. Longer wavelengths require slightly higher operating temperatures.  For example, typical operating temperature for 4.2 µm cutoff nBn material is in the 150 K to 165 K range.

The IRC900 Series cameras provide high thermal sensitivity and spatial resolution in a compact package suitable for laboratory and field use.  Developed using closed cycle stirling coolers these cameras offer the highest full frame rates and shortest integration times in the industry. Produced with all metal external parts, these coolers are built for long life under stressing environmental conditions.

We offer these products with the ability to configure spectral band cold filter, transfer tube configuration, and f/#, allowing you to alter for specific application requirements.  Utilizing the latest in all digital FPA Technology, the IRC900 Series offers unmatched sensitivity, ultra-low noise, no blooming and no cross talk.

The technologically advanced IRC912 science grade camera utilizes a high operating temperature nBn focal plane array (FPA) and provides unmatched sensitivity and ultra-low noise with no blooming or crosstalk. The IRC912 operates at up to 119 frames per second full frame, and supports sub windowing for even higher frame rates. The IRC912 features high definition 1280 x 1024 pixel resolution at full window size, and includes Camera Link, Gigabit Ethernet and HDMI outputs. The IRC912 is the perfect choice for the most demanding MWIR imaging applications including materials evaluation, quality assurance and spectroscopy. With its nBn sensor, the closed-cycle Stirling cooled Dewar assembly in the IRC912 consumes low power and results in a self-contained, portable package. The IRC912 is delivered with our WinIRC software, and a Soft-ware Developers’ Kit is available for integration into end user applications
