MWFLIM-GaAsP
16-Channel Multi-Wavelength FLIM Detector with GaAsP Cathode
Fluorescence lifetime imaging and single point decay recording with spectral resolution
Simultaneous detection in 16 wavelength channels
Based on BH’s multi-dimensional TCSPC technique
High efficieny GaAsP cathode
Picosecond time resolution
Confocal laser scanning microscopes
Multiphoton microscopes
Upgrade for existing bh FLIM systems
Compatible with SPC-130EM, SPC-150, SPC-150N, SPC-160, SPC-830 TCSPC modules and
Simple-Tau systems
The MWFLIM GaAsP module detects fluorescence decay data in 16 spectral channels simultaneously. It uses an input fibre bundle for light collection, a grating polychromator for spectral dispersion, a Hamamatsu 16-channel multi-anode GaAsP PMT, and routing electronics for bh’s multi-dimensional TCSPC technique. The detector can be used for multi-wavelength FLIM in combination with confocal or multiphoton laser scanning microscopes and for single-point multi-wavelength fluorescence decay measurements. The MWFLIM-GaAsP detector is controlled by a bh DCC-100 detector controller. It is connects directly to
the bh SPC-130EM, SPC-150, SPC-150N, SPC-160 and SPC-830 TCSPC / FLIM modules, and to the bh Simple-Tau 130EM, 150, 150N, 160, and 830 table-top TCSPC systems.
