Andor’s iXon DV885 EMCCD has single photon detection capability without an image intensifier. Containing a 1004 x 1002 ImpactronTM Frame Transfer CCD sensor from Texas Instruments, it enables charge to be multiplied on the sensor before it is read out, while utilizing the full QE performance of the CCD sensor. The EMCCD gain of the camera can be varied from unity up to a thousand times directly through the software. The system offers up to 35MHz pixel readout rate and benefits from minimized dark current with unequalled thermoelectric cooling down to –90oC. Ultimate in Sensitivity from EMCCD gain – even single photon signals are amplified above the noise floor. Full QE of CCD chip is harnessed (no intensifier). Critical for sustained vacuum integrity and to maintain unequalled cooling and QE performance, year after year. One window design with double sided AR-coated window Highest possible throughput of photons to sensor. Can be used with C-mount magnifying lens without image curvature. Critical for elimination of darkcurrent detection limit – an EMCCD must! Maximum frame rate. Shorter exposures without smear. 1004x1002 Frame Transfer sensor Small pixel size (8 x 8mm) delivering high resolution, large field of view and fast, shutterless imaging. Quantitative accuracy at all speeds - ~31.5 full frames/sec possible. Set fan speed or turn off completely for no vibration! Built-in C-mount compatible shutter Easy means to record control dark images – excellent for optimization of experimental set-up. Built in May 2005, this camera is supplied with a controller card and 6 months warranty.
