Launch of Light Engine
Lumencor announced the launch of its new product. The Spectra light engine provides seven discrete solid state outputs spanning the complete visible spectrum, making it a true arc lamp replacement. This product complements the family of multicolor light engine products by Lumencor for microscopists, researchers and OEMs. The light engines are supporting high content screening, live cell imaging, digital histology, gene expression analysis and a plethora of other applications in labs and instrumentation worldwide, stated Steven Jaffe, Ph.D., President and CEO. more
Most Compact 355 nm Solid State Laser
The diode pumped laser Zouk from Cobolt is a compact, true continuous wave (CW) solid state laser at 355 nm. The wavelength of 355 nm is particularly useful for efficient excitation of DAPI, Hoechst 33342 and Indo-1, common fluorophores used in stem cell research, DNA analysis and Ca2+ experiments. more
Optical Micro- and Nano- Metrology
To image and measure small structures, forms and surface roughness has become more easy, fast and versatile with the Sensofar PLµ Neox, distributed by the Schaefer-Tec group. The optical profilometers of the PLµ series combine the two complementary measuring techniques of confocal microscopy and interferometry in one and the same instrument. With this, high resolution 3-D imaging and dimensional measurements of nearly all kinds of surfaces are obtained easily and fast. more
Tunable Diode Lasers
Grating stabilized diode lasers in Toptica's proprietary pro technology can now be equipped with laser diodes from 370 nm to 1770 nm. The TA pro, a master oscillator power amplifier system, provides up to 1.5W output. Frequency converted lasers offer UV, green or yellow light, e.g. at 589 nm with 20W (Guide Star) or 2W (Na laser cooling). Other recent developments include fiber amplified tunable diode lasers, cw lasers at 190 nm, and high speed locking electronics for linewidth narrowing below 1 Hz. more
Point into Confocal Microscopy
High performance confocal microscopy can now be achieved using a white light source. This follows the launch by Andor Technology of Revolution DSD, a fully integrated system based on a Differential Spinning Disk optical system working in conjunction with an high sensitivity, Interline CCD camera Clara and controlled by an IQ work station.Using white light, as opposed to lasers, significantly cuts the cost and brings this form of microscopy within the budget of far more potential users, particularly as this compact solution will fit the side port of any microscope. more
The Portable Digital Microscope
With the Leica DVM line, the microscopic image is displayed directly on a high-resolution monitor. The streamlined zoom optics reach difficult-to-access surfaces for nondestructive inspection of even the largest stationary parts, which could only be examined with effort using traditional microscope techniques. Leica digital microscopes not only feature high-quality optics, they also offer a wide variety of quantitative analysis options - whether 2D analysis or 3D surface measurements. The Leica DVM5000 is an integrated digital microscope system that features capacity and speed. more
High-Resolution Brightfield Objectives
Olympus has introduced the new Mplapon series of plan apochromatic objectives, which provide a high level of chromatic aberration correction for materials imaging. Completing the UIS2 objective range, the objectives are available in 50x and 100x magnification. Developed to provide excellent brightfield imaging, including DIC, the Mplapon objectives feature numerical apperatures (N.A) of 0.95 and are fully compatible with active auto-focusing units. The high resolution capabilities of the objectives enable individual imaging and observation of points separated by only 0.35 µm. more
Laser Fluorescence Filters
A collaboration between Cobolt and Semrock, has resulted in the development of optical filters optimized for use with the Cobolt Mambo 594 nm orange laser in fluorescence instrumentation. To realize the benefits of this new laser wavelength, optical filters that are designed with matched spectral properties are needed. Semrock has announced a number of new filters designed specifically for instrumentation based on the 594 nm laser, and ideal for excitation and detection of Texas Red, Alexa Fluor 594, and the popular new fluorescent proteins mCherry and mKate. more
