The signal is the sample.

Results that can be trusted, shot by shot.

Synchronized, single-shot detection with deterministic timing and ultra-low noise. So the data is decided by the physics, not the hardware. Replacing drift-limited averaging, days-long acquisition runs, and high-cost detection hardware with a proven measurement platform that integrates cleanly into your experiment.

^ From recent published studies using our system architectures.

Compact, multi-device synchronization.

Built as an Integrated System.

The Glaz LineScan Camera Systems support modern CMOS and InGaAs sensors for visible, NIR, and SWIR spectroscopy. LineScan Dual offers a dual CMOS sensor detection in a single enclosure .

Key characteristics:

  • Ultra-low-noise analog front-end with true 16-bit acquisition
  • Deterministic internal and external triggering
  • Built-in support for pump-probe and reference/probe measurements
  • Lossless FPGA data compression for high-speed acquisition

Designed for experiments where timing accuracy and spectral integrity matter more than industrial throughput.

Our photodiode readout system is optimized for femtosecond and pump-probe spectroscopy, providing precise discrimination between pumped and unpumped (odd/even) scans at high repetition rates.

Core strengths:

  • Deterministic timing for shot-to-shot measurements
  • FPGA-based processing for real-time separation of signals
  • Seamless synchronization with Glaz LineScan cameras
  • LabVIEW, Python, and .NET integration for rapid experiment control

An essential building block for ultrafast spectroscopy, transient absorption, and time-resolved measurements.

Next: CHRON.
A modular ecosystem for time-resolved, pulsed, low-light, and high-sensitivity detection. Line-scan cameras, photodiode and PMT modules, SPAD and photon-counting loggers, configured for the experiment in front of you. One standard throughout.

Previous-Generation Instrumentation

Complete technical resources for earlier Glaz, Uragan, and Skorost product lines, including documentation, specifications, application notes, and long-term support—ensuring continuity and reproducibility for ongoing experiments.

Customized for your experiment.

For when the instrument has to become part of your system. API integration (Python, LabVIEW, C#, .NET), custom mounts, and OEM builds. See the case studies: an API for an InGaAs OEM camera, custom mounts for Andor spectrographs, and an OEM InGaAs camera for material inspection.

Integrate Synertronic instruments directly into your software environment for deterministic, shot-by-shot control. Minimize timing errors, synchronize multiple devices, and streamline data acquisition in complex optical experiments. LabVIEW, Python, C#, and .NET APIs ensure your workflow is fast, precise, and consistent.

Precision optical alignment is critical in advanced experiments. Our in-house CAD and manufacturing expertise deliver custom mounting solutions that integrate seamlessly with your instruments, reduce drift, simplify setup, and maintain high measurement fidelity—without adding unnecessary complexity.

From adapting an existing instrument to building a fully custom measurement system, we act as your in-house engineering partner. We deliver experiment-ready, synchronized systems that perform reliably under complex experimental conditions, accelerating development while maintaining instrument-grade fidelity.
