iXon^EM+ 888 EMCCD Camera

 Andor's iXon^EM+ 888 back-illuminated EMCCD digital microscope camera is the world's first megapixel back-illuminated EMCCD, combining large field of view, single photon detection capability and high Quantum Efficiency (> 90%). iXon^EM+ is designed to extract the absolute best from quantitative EMCCD technology across all critical performance parameters. This new 1024x1024 frame transfer format offers unequalled thermoelectric cooling down to -95˚C, industry-lowest clock induced charge noise, and operates at 9 frames/sec (full resolution). EMCCD and conventional CCD readout modes provide heightened application flexibility.
The absolute EM gain multiplication can be varied linearly from unity up to a thousand times directly via RealGain^TM, a true quantitative EM gain scale. To combat the gain-ageing phenomenon inherent to back-illuminated EMCCDs, Andor's EMCAL^TM is a unique and innovative user-initiated routine, performing auto-recalibration of the EM Gain scale, without need for a light source, and circumventing the need for factory recalibration.
