Long-life™ Microchannel Plates
PHOTONIS's Long-Life™ Microchannel Plates offer the highest L/D ratio available to deliver superior performance in gain for a variety of detector applications. Their sustained output is up to ten times greater compared to conventional MCPs. Importantly, Long-Life™ MCPs are rugged and durable offering stable gain and outstanding bias current stability resulting in extended operation, decreased downtime and lower costs.
PHOTONIS Microchannel Plates (MCPs) are fabricated from our proprietary Long-Life™ glass formulation. All MCPs are available with an Extended Dynamic Range (EDR) option which provides a linear output range that is up to 40 times that of a standard MCP.
High Resolution Microchannel Plate
PHOTONIS microchannel plates have a long standing presence and recognisation in the imaging field. They are largely used for imaging tubes manufacturing and therfore exibit the best performance necessary for the application such as spatial resolution. |

Advanced performance detectors (APD)
PHOTONIS's Advanced Performance Detectors provide significant increases in performance over alternative detectors: greater sensitivity, higher gain, and longer life. The Detection Quantum Efficiency of PHOTONIS detectors provide maximum sensitivity to enable detection of very low levels of photons, electrons, or ions. The sensitivity of PHOTONIS’s detectors enables an analytical instrument to identify elements and determine the composition and structure of complex molecules to the sub-parts-per-trillion level. Our new mass spec (MS) detectors offer previously unobtainable levels of sensitivity, dynamic range and stability.

Time-of-Flight Detectors (TOF)
PHOTONIS offers the widest variety of Time-of-Flight Detectors available. Whether it’s our BiPolar or High Performance Time-of-Flight detectors, you’ll know you have today’s most advanced TOF detector technology. These patented Time-of-Flight Detectors offer previously unobtainable levels of temporal resolution, dynamic range, and high mass detection sensitivity for Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry. PHOTONIS's unique 2-Micron pore Microchannel plates provide the highest channel density of any MCP providing gains in excess of 5x106.
PHOTONIS AP-TOF detectors are designed with cartridges which contain a Chevron™ set of two Long-Life™ small pore Extended Dynamic Range™ MCPs, and a high transmission grid mounted in a rugged module. If necessary, this module can be purchased separately, allowing quick and easy MCP replacement.

ELECTRONGEN™ Electron Generator Arrays
EGAs can be used as the electron source in electron impact ionization sources. This technology has the advantage of performing as a cold ionization source. Eliminating pyrolytic effects that occur when the heat generated by the filament chemically changes the unknown substances to be identified. PHOTONIS patented ELECTROGEN™ Electron Generator Arrays (EGAs) consist of millions of precision glass tubes fused together to produce a uniform and mechanically rigid structure. They are processed such that, when a voltage is applied across the thickness, each pore produces a beam of electrons. With each of the millions of pores producing electrons, the resultant electron flux is extremely uniform and dense.
