Performances of a CCD camera from 1 to 1100 nm spectral region

The performances of a CCD have been evaluated in a Very wide spectral region, which comprises the near IR the visible, the near and far UV, EUV and soft X-ray spectral regions. The CCD detector is a back illuminated one, 512 x 512 format, 24 x 24 mu m(2) pixel. The measurements performed consist mainly on the determination of tile quantum efficiency and of the uniformity of response in rite 1-1100 nm spectral region, Three different experimental setup have been used for the Various spectral range: a Czerny-Turner monochromator for the 1100-250 mm region, a Johnson-Onaka manochromator for the 250-30 nm region, and a,orating incidence monochromator for the 30-1 nm region. The tested CCD exhibits high values of quantum efficiency and a good uniformity of response in the analyzed spectral range.
