1 HIGH-SPEED GATED IMAGE INTENSIFIER UNITS,, SERIES Left: series + Controller, Center: series, Right: series OVERVIEW Image intensifiers (I. I.) are devices capable of intensifying an image at high gain and high-speed gating (electronic shutter operation). This allows them to capture "instantaneous images" of ultrafast phenomena that occur in extremely short periods of time. Hamamatsu, and series image intensifier units consist of a compact head that integrates an image intensifier with a high-speed gate operation circuit and a remote controller. Built-in image intensifiers are available with three standard photocathodes which are GaAsP, GaAs, and multialkali photocathodes. A high-sensitivity, high-speed shutter camera can be configured by simply connecting an image intensifier head to the front of a camera such as a CCD camera. Various types of CCD cameras can be optically connected through a relay lens. CCD cameras with fiber optic window are available as options. Image intensifier gain can be adjusted from the remote controller or a PC (personal computer) through USB interface (Ver. 1.1 compatible with Windows Vista business / 7 Pro). Built-in over-light protection circuit allows using these image intensifier units without having to worry much about the input light level.
