preliminary high-speed gated image intensifier units c9548 series overview image intensifiers (i. i.) are devices capable of intensifying an im- age at high gain and high-speed gating (electronic shutter opera- tion). this allows them to capture "instantaneous images" of ultra- fast phenomena that occur in extremely short periods of time. the c9548 series is an image intensifier unit which is suitable for piv application. it has a built-in pulse generator to allow multi-ex- posure (burst) operation. the gaasp photocathode is ideal for low-light-level imaging in the visible region such as for fluorescence observations. the multialkali photocathode on the other hand offers high sensitivity over a wider spectral response range from the uv through near ir region so observations can be made at various wavelengths. by using a relay lens, the c9548 series can be easily connected to various ccd cameras or high-speed cameras. the image intensifi- er gain, gate width and delay time can be controlled and set from a pc through the rs-232c interface. (the image intensifier gain can also be controlled and set from the remote controller.) features maximum repetition frequency: 200 khz built-in pulse generator multi-exposure high-speed gating: 10 ns minimum high performance image intensifier high quantum efficiency in visible range: gaasp photocathode type wide spectral response range from uv to near ir: multialkali photocathode type applications analysis of high-speed phenomenon piv / engine combustion state plasma emission / discharge / flow / spray and so on.
