What is a Dynamic Range?

May 25, 2017 | Glossary of Spectroscopy Terms, Uncategorized

The dynamic range of a spectrometer is a measure of the intensity resolution of a spectrometer. In essence, it is the maximum signal before saturation over the minimum signal, where the minimum signal is a signal equal to the baseline noise (S/N = 1). However, the...

What is Pixel Well Depth?

May 25, 2017 | Detectors, Glossary of Spectroscopy Terms, Uncategorized

Pixels work by converting photons into electrons. Most detectors store electrons in the pixels while they are exposed to the light, then convert the electrons into a signal after exposure. The pixel well depth, also called the full well capacity, determines how many...
