SID4 sC8 Quantitative Phase Imaging Camera
The Phasics SID4 sC8 is a high-resolution wavefront sensor designed for quantitative phase imaging (QPI) in life sciences and material inspection. It delivers fast, accurate, and label-free phase measurements in a compact, plug-and-play form, combining Phasics’ patented wavefront sensing technology with a high-performance sCMOS detector. In biological imaging, it enables label-free live-cell visualization with sub-nanometric Optical Path Difference (OPD) sensitivity and compatibility with major microscopy software. For material science, it provides precise refractive index measurement, surface inspection, and laser damage analysis, making it a versatile quantitative imaging solution.
Features
- Sub-nanometric OPD sensitivity for high-precision measurements
- Single-shot phase and intensity imaging for dynamic samples
- Wide spectral range: 400 – 1050 nm (VIS – NIR)
- Compatible with major imaging platforms: Metamorph, Micro-Manager, NIS-Elements, etc.
- Compact, plug-and-play design for easy integration into existing microscopy setups
- USB 3.0 interface for fast data transfer
Applications
- Quantitative Phase Imaging (QPI) in live-cell and tissue studies
