PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The Mini-tau is an ultra-compact, low cost, filter-based dedicated fluorescence lifetime spectrometer. Using Time-Correlated Single Photon Counting (TCSPC), the Mini-tau can measure fluorescence lifetimes ranging from 25 ps to 10 μs (source dependent). It can also be equipped with Multichannel Scaling (MCS) electronics for long-range photoluminescence from 10 ns to 10 s.

Whether you need to measure fluorescence lifetimes or time-resolved fluorescence anisotropy for research, quality assurance or teaching applications, the Mini-tau is the ideal all-inclusive, fully integrated solution. Operation is extremely simple and intuitive making it the ideal entry-level instrument for photoluminescence lifetime.

Fluoracle software is supplied with the Mini-tau. It has an easy-to-use interface and allows users to comprehensively record data and accurately analyse complex decay kinetics of up to four lifetimes.
