SVS VISTEK goes SWIR with fxo990 and exo990
 SWIR applications have a reputation for being complicated and expensive. The new cameras exo990 and fxo990 from SVS-Vistek cover an extremely wide wavelength range from the visible VIS to the invisible SWIR range, are inexpensive and as easy to use as normal industrial cameras due to their GenICam interface. The possibility of covering VIS and NIR wavelengths with a single camera allows extremely compact applications.
With the SenSWIR sensor, Sony has developed the new copper-copper bonding (Cu-Cu bonding) technology. With this new sensor technology, the InGaAs boundary layer becomes thinner, which leads to a significant increase in quantum efficiency (in the NIR range almost up to 100%).
