The C9692 series Photon Detection Units are photon counting units designed to make low-light measurements at single photon levels without a time-consuming measurement setup. All users need to do is prepare the sample the users want to measure and a personal computer (PC). Four models (C9692-01/-02/-03/-04) are available so the users can select one that best meets your application. When combined with optional modular units (A9859, A9860, A9861, A10490), the C9692 is ideal for various types of measurement. The USB interface allows simple plug & play setup when connecting the C9692 to a PC.

MEASUREMENT EXAMPLES === Fluorescence intensity measurement of one grain of polished rice (with husk and outer brown matter removed) ===
Graph shows changes in fluorescence intensity emitted from a grain of polished rice irradiated with UV light for 10 seconds, and measured with the C9692-03 operated by the control software that comes supplied with the unit.
CONTROL SOFTWARE FUNCTIONS
Time-resolved measurement
Resolves measurement time per unit time (1ms or more) allowing measurement of various light emission patterns. Optical shutter control
Opens or closes optical shutter for excess light protection and dark current pulse measurement. Data display during measurement
Continuously transfers measurement data to PC for data monitoring. Measurement data save
Saves measurement data in Excel format to make data analysis easier.
