In-Vacuum Imaging

Scientific, industrial, and space-related applications

Enhancing Research Outcomes

Ultra-High Vacuum (UHV) imaging is essential for advanced
scientific and particle physics research.

Cutting-edge research often requires measurement and observation inside demanding vacuum environments, where traditional imaging systems cannot operate. XCAM Scientific develops advanced in-vacuum imaging solutions that deliver stable performance under ultra-low pressure and super-clean conditions. Our systems enable researchers, instrument manufacturers, and laboratory teams to capture critical data, validate experimental setups, and accelerate scientific discovery. 

Application Areas

From synchrotrons for high energy physics to video monitoring of experiments inside of a vacuum chamber, XCAM Scientific’s imaging and detector technologies are designed and built to meet the demands of these advanced scientific applications.

Synchrotrons

In synchrotrons, imaging within vacuum environments supports advanced spectroscopy by spreading the x-ray spectrum across the detector and enabling the observation of individual photons, providing precise, low-noise measurements essential for high-resolution beamline diagnostics.

Fusion Reactors

In-vacuum imaging in fusion reactors enables high-speed, high-spectral rate observation of rapidly evolving plasma, supporting real-time monitoring and diagnostics critical for achieving and maintaining fusion conditions.

Laser Plasma Research

In-vacuum imaging within laser-plasma experiments provides high-resolution, real-time observation of plasma behaviour and target interactions, supporting precise diagnostics, experimental refinement, and deeper understanding of extreme energy-density phenomena.

Video Monitoring

Vacuum-compatible imaging for in-vacuum video monitoring enables continuous, real-time observation of components or experiments in evacuated environments with no outgassing risks. This supports diagnostics, operational oversight, and safety while maintaining performance under low-pressure conditions.
