What is an Intensified Camera?

An intensified camera is a specialized imaging device equipped with an image intensifier to enhance the detection of low-light signals. Image intensifiers amplify incoming photons through a photocathode, microchannel plate (MCP), and a phosphor screen, allowing for the detection of extremely faint or fast optical phenomena. These cameras are widely used in fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIM), high-speed imaging, and single-photon detection in scientific applications such as biophysics, plasma physics, and time-resolved spectroscopy.
