The NIRvana: 640* from Princeton Instruments is the world’s first scientific grade, deep-cooled, large format InGaAs camera for low-light scientific SWIR imaging and spectroscopy applications.

The camera uses a 640 x 512 InGaAs array with response from 0.9 mm to 1.7 mm.

The detector is Peltier cooled to -85°C to minimize thermally generated noise and to improve signal-to-noise ratio for the most demanding SWIR applications.

It offers 16-bit digitization and low read noise for outstanding dynamic range.

Features	Benefits
640 x 512 InGaAs array	High resolution imaging in the SWIR region; Offers 4X more pixels over 320 x 256 sensor
20 mm x 20 mm pixels	High spatial resolution
Response from 0.9 mm to 1.7 mm with 85% (typical) peak quantum efficiency	Excellent SWIR sensitivity for demanding imaging applications
