We build streak camera systems that can achieve time resolution on the femtosecond time scale while conserving and ultra-fine spatial resolution on a very long slit length.
Our ultrafast cameras are well-suited for time-resolved spectroscopy of ultrafast events in the X-rays as well as in visible light.

![]() X-ray pulse obtained with the INRS Ultrafast X-ray Source. |
![]() The UV signal that is analyzed here is composed of two laser pulses (wavelength=260 nm) with duration of about 275 fs. Time separation of 770 fs is obtained using a Michelson interferometer and the accuracy is 20 fs. |
![]() Static image obtained using a 25 line-pairs/mm mesh applied on the photocathode. This shows a resolution of 40 µm with 80% contrast. | ![]() The same high spatial resolution is conserved even with high speed sweeping (5 ps/mm).

This integrated system allows the analysis of ultrafast events at repetition rates up to 1 kHz while conserving the excellent spatial and temporal resolution of the AXIS streak camera. This is the ideal tools ultrafast spectroscopy with large dynamic range and high signal-to-noise ratio
![]() Only a fraction of the laser energy is taken to trigger photoconductive switches. This allows signal averaging over a impressive number of laser shots. | ![]() The signal is averaged over 1 million shots (~ 20 minutes) and time resolution is still subpicosecond. |
AXIS manufactures custom streak cameras for OEM uses or special applications.
