Precision Timing for Photon-Based Research
The Time Tagger Series from Swabian Instruments delivers sub-picosecond precision for measuring photon events and timing signals. It is designed for experiments that demand absolute temporal accuracy and enables continuous time-to-digital conversion, real-time data streaming, and flexible analysis tools. Researchers can correlate and interpret fast optical or electronic events with exceptional clarity.
Key Features
• High-resolution timing and histogramming for photon counting and digital protocol analysis
• Compatible with multiple detector types, including SNSPDs, APDs, PMTs, and SiPMs
• Multi-channel configurations for scalable experimental setups
• Comprehensive software API support in Python, MATLAB, LabVIEW, and C++/C# for seamless integration
Why it matters
The Time Tagger Series provides the accuracy and flexibility needed to translate fleeting photon events into meaningful data by combining nanosecond-to-picosecond timing control with robust analytical tools.
Applications: High-speed data streaming makes these taggers ideal for time-resolved microscopy.
Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging Microscopy (FLIM): Mapping the decay time of fluorophores in biological samples to study molecular environments.
Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy (FCS): Analyzing intensity fluctuations to determine particle concentrations and diffusion coefficients.
Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS): Measuring the size of nanoparticles by analyzing the temporal fluctuations of scattered light.
Single-Molecule Spectroscopy: Tracking the behavior of individual molecules over time.
