Photon Force offers a range of products and services all aimed at the acceleration of scientific and commercial research that incorporates single-photon counting and timing. Our camera range currently includes two PF32 models. The PF32-500k offers an entry-level unit, whilst the PF32-1M offers extreme speed for applications that require flexibility in readout modalities.
Cameras
The Photon Force range of PF32 cameras are the highest throughput SPAD array cameras on the market today.
- 32x32 TCSPC pixel array
- 55 picosecond resolution
- Two models; 500k and 1M
- Two modes; TCSPC and photon counting
- Up to 500,000,000 photons timestamped per second
Sensors & ROICs
We offer a design and manufacturing service to provide custom sensors and readout integrated circuits (ROIC) spanning resolution, size and architecture options. These provide hardware acceleration for your application’s processing needs, or simply meet OEM requirements for ultrafast single-photon imaging.
Firmware
Photon Force can provide customised firmware to accelerate your research by performing the data analysis within the camera itself (only available with PF32-1M).
Software
Our off-the-shelf software provides a flexible API for easy integration with other applications. Common programming languages that we link with include MatLab, LabView, Python, C and C++.
Where are Photon Force technologies used?
Photon Force products and technologies are used across a wide range of sectors to enable ultrafast, Time-Correlated Single Photon Counting with the ability to timestamp half a billion photons per second. Our cameras and sensors are primarily used in the fields of photonics, quantum optics and other scientific research to enable next generation technologies and products in a wide range of industries, spanning neuroscience, energy, communications, automotive, and beyond.
