		Photonic Science’s latest camera has single photon counting capabilities, using the NEW Impactron? CCD from Texas Instruments. This high resolution, photon counting camera gives crisp, fast images and can be run binned for fast 16-bit higher speed readout. In this device on chip charge multiplication within the CCD, an “impact ionisation process”, allows the charge to be amplified in the CCD before the sensor is read out thereby dramatically increasing signal above the readout noise.


		This device is having a major influence in low light, dynamic cellular and fluorescent microscopy. Cooling of D–50°C produces minimised readout noise that allows imaging photon counting that does not require either an image intensifier or long integrations and slow scan read out. The deep chilling allows for 12 and 16-bit digitisation and benefits from negligible dark current.


		The CoolView EM gives fast, low light level, high-resolution images, processed to 12 or 16 bits, with the flexibility of windowing, binning, software and hardware triggering. The CoolView EM/1000 is a new state of the art camera bringing the latest of CCD developments to produce a powerful, flexible and outstandingly sensitive camera.
