Bringing Light to Science
High speed or high resolution imaging
Visible Light Photoactivation Module
Features:
- Single-mode fiber input
- Spot mode sizing capability with adjustable iris
- Variable spot size (5-25 μm spot) and diffraction limited point
- Pointing/positioning through use of second set of galvos
- Can take advantage of full visible light spectrum (400-700 nm)
- Potential applications include highly accurate point or spot activation of photoactive and photoswitchable molecules such as Channelrhodospin and Halorhodospin
