The Sydor ROSS 2550 is an economical, smaller format streak camera for a variety of ultrafast applications where
multiple data channels and auto-calibration is not required. The ROSS 2550 can operate as a stand alone, single beam instrument or
expanded to incorporate the features of the Sydor ROSS Optical Calibration Module (OCM) for auto-calibration. The ROSS 2550 shares
many of the same attributes of the other ROSS platforms such as remote operation, extensive EMI shielding, and fast, reliable data acquisition.
The ROSS 2550 is most suitable for applications such as spectroscopy, detonics, energetics, VISAR experiments, and other diagnostic
applications where single beam imaging is most important.

The Sydor ROSS 5100 is an advanced data collection system. The Sydor ROSS Streak Camera system is the only
self-calibrating streak camera with the highest precision and greatest accuracy of any commercially available instrument.
The Sydor ROSS 5100 enables picosecond measurements of plasma and particle physics phenomenon with better than 1% measurement
accuracy. The product was developed for the laser fusion program at the University of Rochester, Laboratory for Laser Energetics.
The key feature of this novel instrument is self-calibration. The Sydor ROSS Streak Camera system can be calibrated in place,
alleviating the need to send the camera back to the manufacturer for calibration. Available in both UV/VIS and IR/VIS configurations.

The Sydor ROSS Vacuum X-Ray CCD Camera is a new, compact X-ray digital camera capable of operating completely in a
vacuum. The camera utilises a 16MP sensor with 9 micron pixels for the highest resolution in the most demanding scientific applications.
With flexible binning and ROI readouts, the Sydor X-ray camera is capable of performing in many different applications such as plasma physics, deep
UV lithography, X-ray microscopy and X-ray spectroscopy. Unique features include thermoelectric cooling down to -10C, fibreoptic communication
link for low noise operation, and sensitivity from X-ray/UV to optical wavelengths. A fully digital output with on-board A-to-D conversition
limits interference from external noise. The camera also has a 100% fill-factor ensuring maximum collection efficiency.

Sydor Instruments offers several custom diagnostic solutions for measuring femtosecond pulses in a variety of
ultrafast applications. For single shot events down to 500 femtoseconds, a time expanded single shot autocorrelator is the instrument
of choice. For multiple overlapping pulses of a single wavelength down to 200 femtoseconds, a crystal scanning autocorrelator will do
the job. For multiple wavelengths from tunable lasers, an all-reflective broadband scanning autocorrelator will cover the entire
spectrum in a simple, compact package.

Finally, Sydor Instruments understand that your experiments require unique measurement capabilities and are able to engineer
custom electronics that will deliver the performance you are looking for.
Whether it's faster/slower sweep speeds, running custom streak tubes, or interfacing with a custom CCD camera, Sydor Instruments
can accommodate your request.
We have a highly qualified team in the areas of electronics, optics, software, and mechanical engineering ready to
design a custom solution for you. If you need to interface with a spectrometer or other measuring device Sydor Instruments can help
you get the results you need. Do you have a complex experimental set-up that needs to be built in tandem with the streak camera?
Sydor Instruments can help you design and build complete experimental diagnostic stations for specific applications such as VISAR.
The Sydor ROSS Streak Camera is supplied complete with imaging software, control software, and all the firmware necessary to make precision measurements.
While Sydor Instruments understand the analytical needs of the most complex experiments and measurements they also offer
custom software design services that will help you to graph, model, and analyze your data more efficiently and effectively than
writing it yourself. Sydor Instruments are also able to customize the
Sydor ROSS software to work with your existing software/IT or control infrastructure.
