Description
Introducing the iStar 340T Series, a cutting-edge intensified CCD camera designed to deliver unparalleled performance for high-resolution, nanosecond-scale time-resolved spectroscopy. This series is crafted to meet the demanding needs of contemporary scientific research, providing an integrated detection solution that ensures precision and efficiency in capturing time-sensitive phenomena.
The iStar 340T Series features a high-resolution 2048 x 512 pixel array with a 13.5 μm pixel size, offering a 4:1 aspect ratio. This configuration is perfectly aligned for use with Andor’s Shamrock Czerny-Turner spectrograph series and its accessories, ensuring optimal compatibility and performance. The camera supports Multi-MHz readout speeds, facilitating rapid image capture essential for analyzing fast transition phenomena.
With USB 2.0 connectivity, the iStar 340T Series offers a user-friendly, plug-and-play setup, making it highly accessible for researchers and technicians. The integrated, software-controlled Digital Delay Generator (DDG™) enhances the camera's functionality, allowing seamless integration of complex experiments with full timing and gain control through an intuitive interface. This feature set makes the iStar 340T a versatile tool for a wide range of scientific applications.
The iStar 340T Series is equipped with Gen 2 and Gen 3 image intensifiers, offering a variety of entrance input window and phosphor options to accommodate wavelength range requirements from 120 nm to 1,100 nm. The camera supports minimum gating speeds of less than 2 ns, ensuring unmatched temporal resolution. Additionally, the system's thermo-electric cooling capability down to -40°C makes it ideal for low-light applications, further expanding its utility in diverse research settings.
