Power supplies

We offer a range of laboratory power supplies that are specially designed for the operation of image intensifiers and open MCP detectors. According to the needs, 1 up to 4 outputs with predefined voltage ranges are available.

The power supplies are typically designed as tabletop. Optionally 14" rack version is also possible.

Gate modules

The gate modules can be used with image intensifiers or photomultipliers as ultrafast electronic shutter. This technology is useful when the detector is operated under bright conditions or for the recording of very fast moving objects. The gate modules switch the photocathode on and off with opening times down to 3 ns and at repetition rates up to 300 kHz (model dependent).

A special gate module allows the gating of MCPs down to 8 ns.

Pulsed Laser

The LPG Laser Pulse Generator is designed for the time resolved diagnosis of photomultiplies and image intensifiers. It allows the measurement of the reaction time of fast PMTs and the gating-speed of image intensifiers. It features a lens control that defocuses the laser beam, spreading it all over the active area of the detector. Furthermore a variable pulse width control from 40 to 800 ps is possible. As a standard the LPG is equipped with a 405 nm or 650 nm laser (other l on demand).

Products

LPG-405: pulsed laser ; 40 ps to 800 ps, 405 nm

LPG-650: pulsed laser ; 40 ps to 800 ps, 650 nm

LPG-350: pulsed UV LED; 350 nm

Preamplifier

The preamplifier is used in combination with double or triple-MCP detectors to generate a small electrical pulse for each photon or particle. Thus the timing pulses are amplfied for the feeding of an oscilloscope or other fast timing electronics via a 50 Ω cable.
