PCO-TECH Inc. - Back Illuminated sCMOS by PCO Back Illuminated sCMOS by PCO

PCO-TECH Inc.
Unique technology comes from evolution, combining existing and new technology. When PCO’s tried and trusted sCMOS cameras pool forces with modern back illuminated (bi) sensor technology, pco.edge 4.2 bi and pco.panda 4.2 bi come into the world of science. Both cameras stand out with their nearly perfect quantum efficiency up to 95%.
