e2v and Bayspec Partnership Offers New OCT Spectral Engine

e2v, the leading designer, developer and manufacturer of CCD and CMOS imaging sensors and cameras, and Bayspec, Inc., a world leader in advanced spectroscopy solutions, have announced that their successful partnership has delivered a new Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) spectral engine.

e2v’s new Aviiva EM4 linescan camera, incorporating an imaging sensor optimised for OCT, enables Bayspec’s DeepView spectrograph to perform at up to three times greater collection efficiency than standard Czerny-Turner spectrographs, while offering a 10 times improvement in the detector sensitivity signal/noise ratio.

With a dynamic range of more than 68 dB and a line rate of 70 klines/s, the new Aviiva EM4 camera is the device of choice for high-end OCT systems.

Frédéric Devriere, e2v’s imaging division product manager, said; "The combination of our and Bayspec’s expertise in this dedicated system has already raised great interest, and will make SD-OCT even more powerful and accessible to the research community and industrial markets.”

Eric Bergles, BaySpec’s VP sales & marketing said: "The performance to price ratio of this system literally opens up doors in doctor’s offices, allowing them to purchase cost effective equipment. We also expect this breakthrough to lead to a host of new industrial applications".

The new system will be demonstrated on Bayspec’s booth at the SPIE BiOS Exhibition in San Francisco, January 23th to 24th, 2010.
