Fast Gating
A particularly noteworthy feature of the PI-MAX is its ability to gate in as little as 2 ns or
less when the PI-MAX has been configured with a fast gate intensifier. The camera’s
exceptional gating performance can be easily demonstrated with a straightforward
experimental setup.
The following fast-gated experiment was
performed using the PI-MAX camera with the
fast-gate option and operated in conjunction with
Princeton Instruments’ WinSpec/32 software, a
Hamamatsu PL0-01 Picosecond Light Source,
and a DG535). Other equipment included a
computer and an ST-133 Controller. To do the
experiment, 60 ps pulses from the Hamamatsu
Light Source triggered from the timing generator
were applied to the PI-MAX and a gated
measurement was performed.
