EMCCD <strong>Cameras</strong><br />
Kestrel EMCCD Digital Monochrome<br />
Scientific Frame Transfer EMCCD<br />
The digital Kestrel EMCCD camera is based on e2v’s CCD-60<br />
back-thinned 1/3″ sensor. It combines high sensitivity, speed<br />
and resolution. with QE up to 95 %. It has strong response<br />
from UV through to NIR. With EM gain on it offers less than<br />
0.01 electrons read noise. It uses a 16 bit A/D converter and a<br />
standard CameraLink output. At 500 fps in full resolution, it<br />
offers some of the fastest and most sensitive speeds available<br />
on the market.<br />
Advantages<br />
• 500 frames per second – Full resolution speed making<br />
it the fastest EMCCD on the market<br />
• 128 x 128 Back-thinned EMCCD sensor – Enables<br />
optimum image resolution in low light imaging applications<br />
• 16 bit CameraLink output – Realtime imaging for low<br />
latency photon to digital image<br />
• Up to 95 % QE from back-illuminated sensor – Optimum<br />
Photon collection<br />
• Strong UV and NIR reponse and ultrawide bandwidth<br />
– From 180 nm through to 1100 nm<br />
• Deep cooled to -95 °C – For minimal background<br />
events<br />
