LINPix
High-Throughput Single-Photon-Counting
LINPix is the solution for ultra-fast single photon
counting. The heart of the detector is a microchannel
plate based photomultiplier tube, enabling a dead
time below 2 ns and sustainable count rates above
100 MHz and burst rates of up to 1 GHz. The combination
of high throughput detection with a timing
resolution below 35 ps makes LINPix an ideal photon
detector for your application. Its large ⌀8 mm sensitive
area can accomodate one of four highly sensitive
photocathodes, matching the spectral range you are
interested in.
