The PI-MTE3 2048B camera is engineered for direct detection in VUV, EUV and X-Ray imaging applications up to energies of 10keV. The in vacuum design and large sensor are ideal to operate inside ultra-high vacuum environments at very close proximity to samples while still capturing a large field of view or wide range of scattering angles. The off-axis sensor position allows the camera to be ideally positioned for small angle and grazing incidence applications. Deep cooling of the sensor enable even very low signal applications that require long exposure times.

PI-MTE3
Fully In-Vacuum for Ultimate Flexibility
Every PI-MTE3 is tested and 100% usable in-vacuum, even including the cooling and electrical cables, giving exceptional reliability for flexible camera placement within the vacuum chamber — ideal for experiments with different scattering angles.
Optimized Sensor Position
The sensor within the PI-MTE3 is positioned at the base of the camera, allowing for direct detection of ultra-low incident angles, optimal for x-ray diffraction. The sensor within the PI-MTE3 is positioned at the base of the camera, allowing for direct detection of ultra-low incident angles, optimal for x-ray diffraction.
Soft X-Ray Energy Sensitivity
With sensitivity in the X-ray energy range from 10 eV to 30 keV, the PI-MTE3 is well suited for a wide variety of soft x-ray spectroscopy and imaging applications, such as X-ray microscopy, X-ray plasma diagnostics and EUV lithography.
