Request InfoHamamatsu CorporationFor ultraviolet to near-infrared measurements of extremely fast light phenomena, Hamamatsu Photonics has introduced the C10910 streak cameras. The series simultaneously delivers intensity vs. time vs. position (or wavelength) information with single-photon sensitivity and temporal resolution down to 1 ps. The cameras are suitable for measuring fast fluorescence lifetimes, response times of quantum devices, electron bunch length and stability for synchrotron and linear accelerator applications, and photonic applications requiring high temporal resolution. They are ultrahigh-speed detectors and...See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPRODUCTSPhotonics Spectra August 2022 IssueTime-of-Flight CameraThe DepthVista time of flight (ToF) camera from e-con Systems Inc. features a ToF depth sensor for depth measurement and the onsemi AR0234 color global shutter sensor for object identification. ...BioPhotonics Nov/Dec 2022 IssueBeam Profiling CameraThe Ophir SP504S Beam Profiling Camera from MKS Instruments Inc. measures large and divergent beams by accurately capturing and analyzing wavelengths from 340 to 1100 nm for beam sizes from 45...Photonics Spectra February 2023 IssueEndoscopic Image SensorThe OH02B image sensor from OmniVision Technologies Inc. is a square, 2-MP, 1500 × 1500 resolution CMOS image sensor for medical use.
