Title: Quantitative Luminescence Imaging System description and user's manual

A Quantitative Luminescence Imaging System (QLIS) was designed and constructed. The system was developed for use in imaging and quantitative analysis of very low light level chemiluminescent phenomena. The luminescent reactions are imaged via microchannel plate image intensifier coupled to a newvicon video camera. The video record of the reaction can be stored on video tape or digitally captured by an image processing system which is integral to a host computer controller. Since the particular experimental conditions for which the QLIS was designed necessitate that the chemiluminescent reaction take place in an rf flux within a waveguide, the system includes a coherent fiber optic image transfer system which allows the video hardware to be mounted externally to the rf waveguide.
