Description
The iStar 334T Series by Andor is a premier intensified CCD camera designed to deliver exceptional performance for high-resolution, nanosecond, time-resolved imaging. With its compact form factor of 13.3 x 13.3 mm, this series is engineered to meet the demands of advanced imaging applications requiring precise temporal resolution. The camera's 1024 x 1024 pixel array ensures detailed image capture, making it an ideal choice for a range of scientific and industrial applications.
One of the standout features of the iStar 334T Series is its ability to achieve Multi-MHz readout speeds, which facilitates rapid image acquisition. This capability is complemented by its USB 2.0 connectivity, providing a simple plug-and-play experience that is compatible with modern laptops and desktops. The integrated Digital Delay Generator (DDG™) enhances the camera's functionality by allowing users to control complex experimental setups through a user-friendly software interface.
The iStar 334T Series also boasts industry-leading intensifier technology, with Generation 2 and 3 intensifiers offering high quantum efficiency and sensitivity across a broad spectral range of 120 to 1,100 nm. This makes the camera particularly effective for applications such as plasma analysis and laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS). The camera's advanced gating capabilities, including close-coupled gating with optical gate widths of less than 2 ns, ensure ultimate temporal resolution for capturing fast transient phenomena.
Designed as an industry workhorse, the iStar 334T Series provides reliable performance in demanding environments. Its thermo-electric cooling system down to -40°C minimizes noise, making it suitable for low-light applications. Additionally, the camera's real-time control interface enables intuitive optimization of image acquisition, ensuring that users can achieve the highest quality results with ease.
