Infrared CCD Monochrome Video Camera
1/2″ IR camera ideal for applications requiring real-time imaging with enhanced sensitivity in the near IR and visible regions. Remote control for contrast enhancement
The newly designed IR-1000 real-time camera (30 frames/sec.) offers enhanced sensitivity across the entire visible and near IR spectrum, with a 5X increase in sensitivity at 900nm. The extended IR response allows deeper penetration into tissue sections (e.g. brain slices), while the high sensitivity enables the user to detect images even in lower light conditions.
To provide optimum contrast, the IR-1000 camera now includes electronics that automatically and instantaneously readjust when a scene changes. This innovative design is especially useful when changing magnification levels, specimens, and/or lighting levels. The camera’s new real-time edge enhancement feature sharpens the edges and delivers a clearer picture by resolving fine details in the image.
With a convenient C-mount, the IR-1000 is widely used in a “live” mode connected directly to a monitor. An optional computer interface board is also available. Dage-MTI’s new real-time camera is ideal for applications such as electrophysiology, infrared differential interference contrast (IR-DIC), failure analysis, forensics and semiconductor inspection.
4K Ultra HD Microscopy Camera
Dage-MTI’s 4K-UHD is the ultimate live display microscopy camera for brightfield imaging. The 4K-UHD offers full, ultra high definition, 3840×2160 output (up to 60fps) with 1600 TV lines of resolution! Small features at low magnification that could not be resolved satisfactorily using other HD cameras may now be resolved with the Dage 4K-UHD
Like the family of HD cameras Dage offers, the 4K-UHD is preprogrammed for perfect color by critical adjustments of 6 hues – not just red, green and blue, but yellow, cyan and magenta as well. The 4K-UHD utilizes 3 CMOS chips with pixel offset technology to increase spatial resolution without sacrificing real time, up to 60fps for live streaming. This fast frame rate enables the operator to move samples without smear lag or jitter. Real-time, 60fps video streaming also allows effortless focus and specimen placement for more efficient slide reviews.

Accessories- HypIRia™ Objective lenses
The HypIRia™ are the only telecentric objective lenses optimized for 1 to 2.9 µm. Designed for machine vision and industrial applications, their heavy duty stainless steel and aluminum housing makes them quite resistant to harsh environment. They are well-suited for high-end scientific applications, mostly with spectroscopy or multiband due to their wide field and telecentrism. They succeed at providing a wide aperture over such a long spectral range while still limiting distortion and chromatism. This wide aperture allows an amazing throughput which offers high quality imaging even for low-light imaging. All surfaces have an anti-reflective broadband coating effective over the whole spectral range. The manual fine focus allows for a very precise adjustments of the image. They come in three different focal lengths (11 mm, 15 mm and 25 mm) and their input ports (SM1 and M45) can easily be coupled with standard filters and protective windows. The H11 has a particularily wide field of view, making it stand out even more.

Terasense has developed an original patent-protected technology for making a new type of semiconductor detectors for sub-THz rays operating at room temperatures. The detectors can be combined into a compact and rather inexpensive sensor array (similar to CCD/CMOS sensors in a photo camera). The Company is developing imaging applications for THz and sub-THz frequency ranges based on its sensors.
Website: https://terasense.com
Terahertz imaging cameras
- Operates at frequencies (0.05 – 0.7 THz), where most common materials are transparent
- Different models are available: 256 pixels; 1024 pixels; 4096 pixels – to accomodate any budget
The detectors are fabricated from GaAs high-mobility heterostructure in the standard semiconductor cycle using conventional optical lithography. The imaging sensor is manufactured on a single wafer. That process ensures high homogeneity and reproducibility of the plasmonic detector parameters (pixel-to-pixel deviation responsivity is within 20-percent range). Each unit detector proved to have room-temperature responsivity up to 50 kV/W with read-out circuitry and noise equivalent power 1 nW/Hz^0.5 in the frequency range 10 GHz – 1 THz. The detection mechanism is based on transformation of incident THz radiation into two-dimensional electron system (2DES) plasma oscillation. Plasma wave is then rectified on the inhomogeneity of 2DES electron density in the defect region.

High speed linear THz camera
- Image acquisition rate: 5 KHz (5000 fps)
- Scanning speed: up to 15m/sec (900m/min)
- Spectral range: 50 GHz – 0.7 THz
- Number of pixels (scalable): 256 x 1
- TeraFast® Viewer software
- Warranty period: 1.5 years
- Easily integrated into production process
High Speed Linear THz camera features both, unprecedented imaging speed of 5000 frames per second and ease of integration into any industrial process. Its ultrafast linear sensor array is built to satisfy the needs in Non- Destructive Testing (NDT) and Quality Control (QC) for many industrial applications employing high speed conveyors belts. This product fits most conveyors with a belt speed up to 15 m/s.
Terahertz generators (IMPATT diodes)
- 80 – 120 GHz frequency range
- Typical output power 10 mW
- Low cost and compact
An IMPATT diode (IMPact ionization Avalanche Transit-Time) is a high-power diode used in microwave electronics and sub-THz devices. They operate at frequency range 3 – 400 GHz. Main advantage is their high-power capability and small size. The IMPATT diode operates over a narrow frequency band, and diode internal dimensions must correlate with the desired operating frequency.
TeraSense series of IMPATT diodes are silicon double drift diodes with a 0.6 um transit region, mounted on copper heat sink. The layers in double-drift diodes are: a heavily doped (p+)-region, a moderately doped pregion, a moderately doped n-region, and a heavily doped (n+)-region. The (p+)- and (n+)- regions allow ohmic electrical contacts to be made to the external circuit. The device relies on negative resistance to generate and sustain an oscillation.
Ultrafast Terahertz detectors
- Response time: 150 ps
- Spectral Range: 50 GHz – 1.0 THz
- Responsivity (typical): 1 V/W
- Noise Equivalent Power : 1 nW/√Hz
- Sensitive area: 3 x 3.5 mm
- No power supply needed
- Compact size: 23 x 29 x 6.5 mm
Ultrafast detectors by TeraSense consistently demonstrate response time of less than 150 ps. This was confirmed by direct observation of its impulse response function. The detector was excited by 200 nJ 1 ps laser pulse with a broad spectrum ranging from 0.1 to 3 THz, and its response was recorded by a high speed oscilloscope. The response function shows rise and fall times of 150 ps limited by the oscilloscope 4 GHz bandwidth.
