Class: Detector

The type of detector used to capture the image.

The Detector ID can be used as a reference within the Channel element in the Image element. The values stored in Detector represent the fixed values, variable values modified during the acquisition go in DetectorSettings Each attribute now has an indication of what type of detector it applies to. This is preparatory work for cleaning up and possibly splitting this object into sub-types.

Attributes

annotation_ref : list[AnnotationRef] (The Detector AnnotationRefs). gain : None | float The Detector Gain for this detector, as a float. [units:none] {used:CCD,EMCCD,PMT} voltage : None | float The Voltage of the detector (e.g. PMT voltage) as a float. {used:PMT} Units are set by VoltageUnit. voltage_unit : UnitsElectricPotential The units of the Voltage - default:volts[V]. offset : None | float The Detector Offset. [units:none] {used:CCD,EMCCD} zoom : None | float The fixed Zoom for a detector. [units:none] {used:PMT} amplification_gain : None | float Gain applied to the detector signal. This is the electronic gain (as apposed to the inherent gain) that is set for the detector. [units:none] {used:EMCCD#EMGain} id : str (The Detector ID). type : None | Detector_Type The Type of detector. E.g. CCD, PMT, EMCCD etc.
