Abstract
A further performance test of a fluorescence lifetime spectroscopy system with 2D-photon counting based on a streak camera was carried out. This system offers three different excitation light sources. It includes a pulsable X-ray tube with 40 kV and a laser. A pulsed UV-LED has been installed for sample excitation. The table top measurement device has a temporal resolution down to 20 ps after deconvolution and fluorescence/scintillation decay times can be evaluated in a wavelength selectable range between 200 and 850 nm. Cesium fluoride, cesium chloride and cesium bromide as fast core-valence luminescence emitters with a relatively low light yield were used in the presented performance test. The easily manageable system is able to detect low light levels and to determine the decay times in agreement with literature in most instances. Beside mentioned scintillators PbCO3, SrI2 and Lu2SiO5:Ce as a high light yield material were also measured.
