New Gen III filmless intensifiers for high sensitivity added to the leading ICCD line up.  
  Princeton Instruments/Acton is pleased to announce a new line of PI-MAX intensified CCD cameras with generation III GaAsP intensifiers for very high sensitivity. The intensifiers are fiber optically coupled to a variety of high resolution CCDs with 512 x 512, 1024 x 1024 and 1024 x 256 formats. For the first time, the new intensifiers simultaneously allow greater than 50% quantum efficiency and sub-nano second gate times. This improved performance is ideal for ultra-fast gated applications such as plasma diagnostics, fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) and planar laser induced fluorescence (PLIF). The cameras integrate a programmable timing generator (PTGTM) that makes it easy to synchronize the camera to the experiment.
