Princeton Instruments designs and manufactures high-performance CCD, ICCD, emICCD, EMCCD cameras and spectrographs for bio- logical research and OEM communities. We take pride in partnering with our customers to solve their most challenging requirements. Ask about our IsoPlane aberration-free imaging spectrograph where more photons end up in the peak, increasing the height and effective signal- to-noise ratio (SNR). IsoPlane has been involved in groundbreaking research in biomedical imag- ing. New products include PI-MAX4 the world’s first emICCD camera that delivers single-photon sensitivity and sub-nanosecond time resolution. PI-MAX4 applications include fluorescence life- time imaging microscopy (FLIM) and planar laser induced fluorescence (PLIF) among others.

QImaging introduces optiMOS, the new Scientific CMOS camera and CCD alternative. Optimized for microscopy, optiMOS eliminates compromise between speed, resolution & sensi- tivity. Study cell dynamics with 10x greater tem- poral resolution by streaming 100 FPS with 2.1 Mega Pixels. The affordable solution, optiMOS is available for $9,950 USD. Visit booth 618.

PSJ provides solutions for applications requir- ing accurate positioning. We offer up to 5 axis of travel with sub-nm resolution and high resonant frequencies. The motion can be max- imized, by using a hinge flexure design (up to 800 microns). Closed loop feedback eliminates hysteresis and drift.
