The Cascade II:1024 camera utilizes a back-illuminated, frame-transfer EMCCD that is thermoelectrically cooled to -60°C without the use of any type of liquid. The combination of the sensor’s small pixel size (13 x 13 microns) and large imaging format (1024 x 1024 pixels) facilitates the effective use of short exposure times with the ability to cover a greater amount of real estate on the microscope slide, thus allowing researchers to gather more data per acquisition Key Features - 1024 x 1024 imaging pixels - 13 x 13-µm pixels - >92% quantum efficiency - Detector thermoelectrically cooled to -60°C - EM gain - Multiple-speed operation (10, 5, or 1 MHz) - Back-illuminated, frame-transfer EMCCD - Lifetime vacuum guarantee - 100% duty cycle - 16-bit images - Dual readout modes permit superb low-noise slow-scan readout as well as high-speed EMCCD operation
