Figure 12

Typical dependence of the speckle contrast Inline graphic versus the detector aperture Inline graphic (a), the variations of the SNR (or quality, in arbitrary units) for a point detector (b) and with Inline graphic as the CCD pixel size (c). Curves (b) and (c) cannot be compared. In the case of an area detector, the 22 µm pixel size, at this 2 m distance, is an optimum, and one should not bin pixels of the CCD.
