ProEM®+:1600
The ProEM+: 1600 EMCCD cameras from Princeton Instruments are the most advanced spectroscopy EMCCD cameras on the market.
The 1600 x 200 and 1600 x 400 format sensors, featuring PI’s exclusive eXcelon®3 technology, provide the lowest etaloning in the NIR, and enhanced QE in blue and red. These cameras feature a high speed Electron Multiplying (EM) mode to capture fast kinetics as well as a normal CCD mode with very low read noise for precision photometry. The ProEM+: 16002/16004 cameras are deep cooled using either air or liquid, while the all metal, hermetic vacuum seals are warrantied for life – the only such guarantee in the industry. Both models feature the latest Gigabit Ethernet (GigE) interface to allow remote operation over a single cable without the need for custom frame grabbers.
FEATURES
BENEFITS
eXcelon3 technology
Higher QE in the UV and near IR regions; extremely low etaloning
1600 x 200 and 1600 x 400 format
16 µm pixels for high spectral resolution
Electron multiplication (EM) gain
Amplify weak signals above the read noise floor
OptiCAL
Linear, absolute EM gain calibration using built in precision light source
Improved BASE correction routine
Baseline Active Stability Engine: Bias correction ensures a flat and highly stable baseline
for quantitative measurements
Deep thermoelectric cooling with
air or liquid recirculation
Minimizes dark current, allowing long exposure times. Use convenient forced-air cooling
or liquid cooling for vibration-sensitive environments
Single fused silica vacuum window
Minimizes reflection losses from the UV to the NIR; Optional AR coating and wedge
windows are available
