12 Feb 2009 Princeton Instruments is pleased to announce the arrival of the ProEM™, the highest performance EMCCD camera platform to be offered on the scientific imaging market to date. New ProEM cameras are designed to address challenging low-light applications associated with single-molecule fluorescence, astronomy, and ion imaging, as well as many other high-frame-rate, light-starved applications.
The Princeton Instruments ProEM uses 512x512 and 1024x1024 back-illuminated EMCCDs and supports both electron multiplication (EM) and traditional readout ports. The EM port is used when high frame rates are required under low-light conditions, while the traditional readout port is ideal for slow-scan applications. The cameras provide several highly innovative features, including a Bias Active Stability Engine (BASE™), Princeton Instruments Noise Suppression (PINS™) technology, and OptiCAL™ – on-demand EM gain calibration that produces a linearized EM gain map. |
