Image Intensifiers

Image Intensifiers amplify low light levels for applications such as astronomy, high-speed imaging, photon counting and fluorescence lifetime measurement. Our image intensifiers provide the highest performance in terms of resolution, speed of response and in-service reliability. Photek image intensifiers can be supplied with integrated high voltage power supplies and ultra-high-speed gate units customized to meet the requirements of a specific application.

Description

Photek’s range of image intensifiers provides the highest performance in terms of resolution, speed of response and in-service reliability to deliver photonic measurements for world-class scientific research. Photek manufactures 18, 25, 40 and 75 mm image intensifiers and the world’s largest image intensifier with 150 mm active diameter.

A range of photocathodes and input window materials enables a wide choice of spectral responses to suit many applications. The standard fiber optic output ensures a defined output focal plane and allows the efficient coupling to CCDs and linear image sensors. A variety of MCP configurations satisfies all gain requirements.

Our image intensifiers can be supplied with integrated high voltage power supplies and ultra-high speed gate units customized to meet the requirements of your specific application.

Additional information is available on the image intensifier datasheet. To talk further about these products or the custom design of an image intensifier for your application then please contact us.

18 mm image intensifiers and iCCDs

Red-sensitive image intensifiers

For civil applications, we can offer various image intensifiers originally developed for night vision. The choice covers intensifiers of both Gen II and Gen III technology. Please note that these are dual-use products subject to export control regulations.

These intensifiers feature excellent image quality and sensitivity, particularly in the long-wave visible spectrum.

As they are serial products, we cannot offer customization for these products.

Features

  • High sensitivity
  • Broad spectral range
  • Immunity to magnetic fields
  • High-resolution image output
  • Integrated High Voltage power supply

Applications

  • Astronomic observation
  • Fluorescent microscopy
  • Security
  • Night vision

Red-sensitive image intensifiers
