Scintillator Microscope | |
The Scintillator Microscope is a complete integrated x-ray imaging system. The system uses an Andor New sCMOS camera with commerical-of-the-shelf optics. The system uses a thin transparent scintillator composed of either undoped YAG substrate with epitaxially grown LuAG:Eu (10 microns) or bulk LuAG:Ce (Crytur). The Detector Pool database model name is: "Andor_Scintillator_Microscope". | |

Andor Neo CMOS camera | |
The Andor Neo is front illuminated scientific CMOS camera. Pixels are 6.5 microns and the chip 2560x2160 pixel or 16.6 x 14.0 mm. The Detector Pool unit does not come with any optics, optics and scintillators must be reserved seperately or provided by the beamline. | |

Zeiss Optics | |
The Zeiss optics set is designed to be used with a CoolSNAP camera. The system includes a number of objectives ranging from 2x to 10x and a custom tube lens. The system is inline, meaning that the scintillator, optics and camera are all in a line. This system generally exposes the camera and optics to direct x-ray beam. This exposure can cause the optics transmission to be reduced and high doses of x-rays to cameras can damage the chip. Each objective has a scintillators mount attached to it and the distance from the objective can be manually adjusted. The Detector Pool has two sets of Zeiss Optics available for loan. |
|
Mitutoyo Optics | |
The Mitutoyo optics set is a collection of three long working length objectives (2x, 5x & 10x) and a tube lens and connecting hardware for a c-mount camera. The system does not come with any scintillators. It is recommended that the system be used with a fold mirror, if it is being used with a scintillator. | |
Xradia Resolution Pattern | |
The Detector Pool has one Xradia Resolution Pattern (X500-200-16) available for loan. The pattern has features from 0.5-8.0 microns. | |
X-ray Eye | |
The X-ray Eye is designed to be a simple beam imaging device. The system is made of off the shelf components and includes scintillator and 2x microscope. The Detector Pool has one X-ray Eye available for loan. | |
Scintillators | |
The Detector Pool has limited selection of scintillators, in case of an emergency need at a beamline. | |
