Teledyne Imaging Evolve 16 EMCCD camera with high sensitivity

The Evolve 16 is a high-resolution, back-illuminated EMCCD camera from Teledyne Imaging providing the highest sensitivity in the Evolve range for low-light applications such as single-molecule imaging, TIRF microscopy and more.

Features include an active array size of 512 x 512 EMCCD, 16 μm pixel size, a frame rate of 61 fps, 11.6 mm field of view and 95% quantum efficiency.

When a scientist can count their photons on one hand, they need the lowest noise possible. Alongside back-illumination for maximum quantum efficiency, the Evolve uses electron multiplication to achieve a read noise as low as 0.25e- without sacrificing frame rate.

Through their single output amplifier, EMCCDs offer uniform noise performance across the sensor. This is advantageous for analysis in many single-molecule fluorescence imaging techniques.

The camera fine-tunes the performance of EMCCD sensors to provide high image quality through careful electronic design and calibration.
