A streak camera is a device used to track how the intensity of a light pulse changes over time. They are utilised for applications including time-resolved spectroscopy and LIDAR as well as to quantify the pulse duration of various ultrafast laser systems.
The light beam is refracted by a spinning mirror or moving slit mechanism in mechanical streak cameras. Their maximum scan speed and hence temporal resolution are constrained.
Optoelectronic streak cameras function by shining light onto a photocathode, which when hit by photons causes the photoelectric effect to create electrons.
In a cathode ray tube, the electrons are accelerated and deflected sideways as they move through an electric field created by two plates.
The electric field is quickly altered to produce a time-varying deflection of the electrons, sweeping them across a phosphor screen at the end of the tube by altering the electric potential between the plates.
The streak pattern on the screen is measured using a linear detector, such as a charge-coupled device (CCD) array, which yields the temporal profile of the light pulse.
The best optoelectronic streak cameras have a time resolution of about 180 femtoseconds. Other methods, including optical autocorrelation and frequency-resolved optical gating, are needed to measure pulses shorter than this time (FROG).
The global Streak camera market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
The FESCA-100 streak camera, created by Hamamatsu Photonics K.K., has the highest level of temporal resolution ever. Its newly created structural architecture makes this possible.
The FESCA-100 has a temporal resolution twice as high as typical products and can monitor optical events in 100 femtoseconds (one quadrillionth of a second).
The FESCA-100 was created for uses such as accelerator tuning, which involves irradiating a metal plate with an accelerated block of electrons to monitor light emission phenomena that happen in incredibly fast time intervals.
They will start taking orders, initially concentrating on businesses and colleges with accelerators. Then, they will extend their advertising to organisations, universities, and businesses engaged in ultrashort pulsed laser research.
