ProEM®-HS:1024BX3
The ProEM-HS: 1024BX3 is the most advanced EMCCD camera on the market utilizing the latest low-noise readout electronics and a 1024 x 1024 EMCCD. This camera delivers single photon sensitivity and the best fringe suppression with patented eXelon3 technology. This true 2-in-1 camera features 30 MHz readout speed with the EM gain mode to deliver 25 fps, a slow scan normal CCD readout mode with very low read noise for precision photometry applications, as well as other advanced features including solid baseline stability and linear EM gain control. The ultra-fast custom CCD readout mode is specially designed to deliver greater than 4,400 fps with reduced ROI, whereas the special spectra kinetics mode delivers > 300,000 spectra / sec. The ProEM-HS: 1024BX3 camera is cooled to below -65°C, and the all-metal, hermetic vacuum seals have a lifetime warranty – the only such guarantee in the industry. For the first time, this camera also features the latest Gigabit Ethernet (GigE) interface allowing remote operation over a single cable, without the need for custom frame grabbers. High QE and ultra-low-noise electronics make the ProEM-HS: 1024BX3 camera ideal for demanding, low-light level applications such as astronomy and Bose-Einstein Condensate (BEC) imaging.
