C8600-03SCamerasGaAsP Image Intensifier Unit


Click image to enlarge
The C8600-Series is a high sensitive image intensifier unit developed for low light level observations such as fluorescence. High quantum efficiency of 50 % (typ.) at the peek wavelength is achieved with our Hamamatsu-original GaAsP (gallium, arsenic, and phosphorous) photocathode. Since high gain and spatial resolution are realized simultaneously, low fluorescence under a microscope can be observed in real time using Hamamatsu cameras.

The field of molecular cell biology has made use of total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy. When used as an image detector, the high detection sensitivity of the C8600-03 efficiently images the single molecule fluorescence in real time.
