SPAD512 & SPADα
SPAD Modules & Single-Photon Detectors by Axiom Optics (US)
Overview
The SPAD512 and SPAD Alpha are photon-counting gated cameras based on a proprietary SPAD chip designed for single-photon sensitivity high-speed imaging. The core of these cameras is a SPAD image sensor with either a 512 x 512 array or a 1024 x 1024 array of pixels. It features a global shutter with picosecond precision and nanosecond exposures. It enables a peak photon detection probability of more than 50%, a typical dark count rate of less than 25 counts per second (SPAD512) and effectively zero readout noise. The system software enables 1-bit, 4-bit, 6-bit, 7-bit, … up to 12-bit imaging with gated capability down to 6 ns with steps as small as 20 ps and phasor FLIM processing. It can be accessed through TCP/IP for easy integration into LabVIEW, Matlab, or Python. Thanks to its single-photon sensitivity and gated capability the SPAD camera aims to replace EMCCD and ICCD is many experiments.
