PHOTON COUNTING

DATA SHEET

I-CCD VIDEO CAMERA
C2741-32A, -35A

▲ Left: C2741-32A, Right: C2741-35A

The C2741-32A, -35A cameras are designed specifically
for imaging at ultra-low light levels. Each camera consists
of an image intensifier including a 1 stage MCP and CCD
camera coupled with a relay lens.

Single photon counting is possible due to superior per­formance as compared to conventional ICCD Cameras,
for example:

1. Higher gain................about 10 times higher

2. Lower dark noise....... about 1/10 lower : using bi-

alkali photocathode

APPLICATIONS

The cameras can be used for luminescence and fluores­cence applications in a macroscopic or microscopic
imaging system set up.

• Gene expression experiments

• Colony screening

• Detection of gels and blots

• Enzyme lmmunoassay

• Phagocytosis

• DNA hybridization

FEATURES

• High spatial resolution

(Typical horizontal center resolution)

450 TV lines (C2741-32A)
370 TV lines (C2741-35A)

• Low geometric distortion

Max 2% within inscribed circle

• High sensitivity

Single photon counting is possible

• Wide effective scanning area

approx. 19.0 mm (H) × 14.2 mm (V) (C2741-32A)
approx. 12.7 mm (H) ×

9.5 mm (V) (C2741-35A)
