Andor iStar is a series of three intensified CCD cameras(ICCD) designed for time-resolved imaging and spectroscopy. The intensified ( Intensified) cameras have specific features due to the sCMOS chip, which is gradually replacing the CCD chips in ICCD cameras, making intensified cameras ideal for fast time-resolved imaging and spectroscopy.
The cameras provide high resolution of up to 1M pixels along with an unmatched dynamic range (12-bit or 16-bit), resulting in very sharp and accurate images.
Key Features
- Resolution - 1024 x 1024 pixels, 1024 x 256 pixels or 2048 x 512 pixels
- High dynamic range (optional 12-bit or 16-bit)
- Integrated digital delay generator (DDG)
- Integrate-On-Chip gating up to 500 kHz
- USB 2.0 interface
- TE cooling down to -40°C
- Spectrum count up to 3,571/s
- Photocathode peak Quantum efficiency (or also Quantum efficiency, QE) refers to the ratio of the number of photons incident on the sensor to the number of electrons released in the depletion layer of the sensor.
