Digital CCD Camera

This camera system has an image intensifier ( 18 mm dia.) coupled through a fiber optics to Hamamatsu’s CCD S5466. This provides ultra-high sensitivity.

Under a low light level region that requires a long time exposure time, this camera can acquire equivalent S/N images within a shorter period of time. Furthermore, the ultra high speed gating function (shortest gate time: 5 ns) and gate repetition function (maximum rate: 10 kHz) have been implemented. Acquisition of images in synchronization with repetitive phenomenon enables image accumulation by the CCD. This provides images with a

higher S/N ratio compared to accumulation using memory.
