Lambert Instruments Cooled Intensifier

Product catalog summary

Overview: The Lambert Cooled Intensifier is designed for photon counting imaging systems, particularly in astronomical adaptive optical telescopes. It enhances photon detection with a high frame rate CCD camera and a fast relay lens, requiring high quantum efficiency and low dark current.

Specifications:

Image Intensifier Tube: Hybrid tube (Gen 2 + Gen 1) with an 18 mm input diameter and quartz/glass input window. Photocathode types include Super S25, broadband, and S20, with varying dark count rates.
Gain: Ranges from 20,000 to 300,000 cd/m2.lx, adjustable from 1 to 0.01x.
Resolution: 60 lp/mm on output with a magnification of 0.38x.
Phosphor Types: P20, P43, P46 with decay times of 6.5 ms, 1.5 ms, and 500 ns respectively.
Gating Properties: Follows TTL input with a gate range of 100 ns to infinity and a max repetition rate of 10 kHz.

Cooling and Control:

The intensifier is cooled to -25°C using a thermo-electric cooler with water-cooled Peltier element. Minimum water flow required is 1 ltr/min.
Control unit operates at 230VAC with cooling control accuracy of 0.1°C and gain control via a 10-turn potentiometer.

Applications: Primarily used in astronomy and photon imaging.
