Infrared
This page focuses on SWIR for IC failure analysis. Note silicon bandgap is 1.14 eV => 1087 nm. General notes:
| Technology | Typical um | Typical QE
@ ~1087 nm |

Emission microscope
Related: The Research Devices Model F infrared microscope allows observations in the near158 infrared light region in the wavelength range between λ = 800 - 1200 nm (= 0.8 – 1.2 µm) with a maximum 159 magnification of 400 X.
Alpha Innotech FA-1000
Is there a standard microscope or is it more a camera unit + software?
Relatively compact, stand alone camera system. Comes with small rack with computer and chiller. System weighs around 250 lb.

Hypervision BEAMS
Complete probe station setup. Uses Princeton instruments cameras. For some reason I think they are MCT, but I'm not sure why I believe that.
