Unmatched Performance of Advanced Image Intensifier Tubes
When reliability matters, Photonis’s (part of Exosens) advanced Image Intensifier Tubes deliver.
These advanced components provide unmatched sensitivity, longevity, and exceptional signal-to-noise Ratio (SNR) for the most demanding applications — from high-energy physics to space exploration. Photonis image intensifiers are widely recognized for their high quality and top tier specifications.
Powered by Photonis’s cutting-edge Hi-QE photocathodes and proprietary microchannel plate (MCP) technology, their image intensifier tubes offer sub-nanosecond gating and four spectral options (UV, Blue, Green, Red) to meet your exact needs.
Available configurations include Single MCP, Dual MCP and Proximity Focused Diode models all offering superb signal to noise ratio, spatial resolution, and gating characteristics.
Driven by a demand for increased active detection area in life science and scientific imaging applications, Photonis now offers ultra-high speed and scientific camera manufacturers their upgraded 25-mm image intensifier technology next to their well-established 18-mm and 40-mm range.
Features of Image Intensifier Tubes include:
- Available in 18, 25, and 40 mm diameter
- Market-Leading signal-to-noise Ratio (SNR)
- Superb limiting resolution up to 80 lp/mm
- Available with Hi-QE photocathode technology
- Sub-nanosecond gating technology
- Customizable for every OEM application
