Laser Point Module
The Laser Point Module includes optics for passing directed localized UV (uncaging) energy, or visible (FRAP) energy from a laser through the objective lens of the microscope. It delivers a fixed point of light to the specimen in a highly flexible design with interfaces to most common microscopes.
For fiber optic delivery of laser energy to the Laser Point Module, see our Aurora laser launch or custom laser launch solutions.
Features
- Interfaces to common microscopes
- Interchangeable spot sizes: sub-micron to 10um (optional fibers available)
- Optical fiber input attached via FC connector
- Mechanical laser safety switches
- Optics for passing directed localized UV (uncaging) energy, or visible (FRAP) energy from a laser through the objective lens of the microscope
