CCD Camera   2

Background
The Spin Electronics Group of the Physical Measurement Laboratory requires the purchase of a Spectroscopic Charge-Coupled Device (CCD) Camera for a virtual imaged phased array-based spectrometer to determine the Heisenberg exchange in ultrathin films.

This research is critical to support and advance the microelectronics industry, as the Heisenberg exchange is a key magnetic materials parameter that influences the performance of magnetic random-access memory.

Work Details
The Contractor shall deliver one (1) Spectroscopic CCD Camera with the following specifications:
- At least 1020 x 120 pixels
- High read-out rate per pixel of at least 1 MHz in fast mode
- Typical read out noise of less than 20 electrons at a readout rate of 1 MHz
- Quantum efficiency greater than 90% at a wavelength of 532 nm
- CCD chip must be cooled to at least -60 C
- Pixel size must be larger than 12 μm x 12 μm and smaller than 28 μm x 28 μm
- The camera should allow full vertical binning and 1x1 binned (aka unbinned). All items must be new; used or remanufactured equipment will not be considered.
