80 lp/mm Resolution IITs for Scientific Imaging
The latest advancement of Image Intensifier Tube (IIT) technology from Photonis (a division of Exosens) delivers unprecedented resolution of up to 80 lp/mm (line pairs per millimeter), enabling researchers to capture finer details than ever before. Combined with the fastest available gating and a 25-mm active area, these improvements deliver unmatched flexibility and precision for demanding scientific environments, delivering improved low-light and single-photon imaging capabilities. Built on Photonis’s Hi-QE photocathode technology and industry-leading microchannel plate technology, these tubes offer exceptional signal-to-noise ratio, durability, and long operational lifetime.
“At Exosens, our mission is to empower our partners with the most advanced image intensifier tube technology available today. Through substantial investment in research and development, we have established a new industry benchmark for high-resolution and ultra-fast gating. These breakthrough capabilities will enable camera system manufacturers to deliver exceptional performance and value to their end users.” said Ulrich Laupper, President of the Exosens Ultimate Detection Business Unit.
Cricket™ Pro INTEGRATION
These performance enhancements are now available in the fully integrated image intensifier adapter, Cricket™ Pro. Designed as a true plug-and-play solution, Cricket Pro incorporates either an 18-mm or 25-mm active area, enabling researchers and scientists to effortlessly upgrade their existing CCD or CMOS cameras for advanced low-light and single-photon imaging. With seamless compatibility for C-Mount and F-Mount systems, integrated electronics for optimized power and gating, and support for a broad spectral range from 130 to 900 nm, Cricket™ Pro delivers exceptional high-resolution imaging with simplicity and precision.
