Low Light Level Camera Attachment

The Lambert Intensifier II18 is an intensifying unit that has been designed to couple to a standard monochrome video camera with 1/2 or 2/3-inch image sensor. The unit increases the sensitivity of the camera and enables the detection of images at a light level of 10-5lux (using a f/1.4 lens). The spectral sensitivity can be matched to the application within the range from 170 to 900nm. The Lambert Intensifier II18 is equipped with a Generation II Image Intensifier that features bright, high definition images over a wide range of light levels by adjustable gain control.

The high quality relay lens transfers the intensified image to the image sensor of the attached camera very efficiently and without losses in resolution.

On both sides of the attachment an adjustable C-mount is provided which enables universal use.

The Lambert Intensifier II18G is a gated version of the standard II18. The gating option of the II18G offers the possibility to use the intensifier as an ultra fast Electro-optical shutter with minimum exposure time down to 50ns. With this gating option the input light range is extended significantly and it offers unique options for time resolved experiments.

A version with an additional digital interface/power supply for gain and gating control is available under the designation II18GD.

Applications of the II18(GD) are:

• Fluorescence Microscopy

• Time resolved measurements

• High speed photography

• Day and night surveillance
