In this video, learn how Coherent combines lasers with opto/mechanical/electro components to provide compact laser engines with user-adjustable alignment and excellent unit-to-unit repeatability. Instead of spending overhead cost and effort to combine individual lasers and steer the beam where it's needed, the OBIS CellX does all this for you. State-of-the-art bioinstrumentation devices can be created in a challenging time frame with this universal light engine.

In recent years, photoacoustics has gained significant popularity in biomedical imaging applications. Since photoacoustic imaging (PAI) can provide detailed functional and morphological information of deep-tissue features with high spatial resolution, it holds great promise as a potential clinical diagnostic tool in multiple applications. However, clinical translation of PAI is not happening at an ideal pace because of slow, bulky, and expensive laser sources used for tissue illumination. To circumvent this problem and accelerate clinical translation of PAI, we developed AcousticX system in which laser sources are replaced by portable and affordable high-speed pulsed LED arrays, opening up huge possibilities in point-of-care dynamic functional imaging of tissue in a clinical setting. In this talk, we will introduce our proprietary LED-based multispectral PAI and ultrasound imaging system (AcousticX) and demonstrate its structural, functional, and molecular imaging capabilities using several preclinical and pilot clinical imaging examples. For any questions related to AcousticX and its capabilities, please free to contact us.

The G&H PDR has been developed for ophthalmic, cardiology and skin cancer as well as industrial applications. Developed for swept laser sources. The PDR is characterized and optimized at each wave band, regardless of application. Designed as a compact module the PDR has its photodiodes completely integrated in one package using small photodiodes on a submount. All fiber optic alignment is therefore already done for the OEM – with no further optical connections required.

Applications requiring a compact solution for accurate spectroscopic measurements can benefit from the thin-flat C13555MA mini-spectrometer. Containing a high-sensitivity CMOS APS, this spectrometer is suitable for the UV-VIS range and has a typical resolution of 2-3 nm. With USB bus power only, the possibilities for portability open. This spectrometer gives users the ability to perform precision measurements for colorimetry, fluorescence detection, and other applications both in the lab and in the field. Watch as we go over how to set this spectrometer up for testing, how to obtain data through our evaluation software, and how to calculate signal-to-noise ratio using the data obtained.

The PLUTO Spatial Light Modulator platform is used in a wide field of applications like structured illumination, Optical Trapping and many microscopy applications in general. With the most recent major firmware update to PLUTO-2.1 we use a faster pulse addressing frequency which provides a higher dynamic range for addressing voltages. With an adjusted drive sequence and configurations the phase stability was further improved and with that, the diffraction efficiencies could also be enhanced. The higher bandwidth also increases flexibility in terms of configurations. The SLM device comes with different sets of configurations for optimized response times or optimized phase stability. The PLUTO-2.1 Spatial Light Modulator platform includes 11 versions which are optimized for different applications and wavelength ranges.

PicoQuant's rapidFLIMHiRes approach redefines Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging (FLIM) by combining fast data acquisition with n outstanding time resolution. This method is the ideal tool for ultra fast FLIM acquisiton with up to several frames per second and reliable, quantitative analysis for a broad range of applications such as: imaging of dynamic processes (e.g., protein interaction, chemical reaction, or ion flux), highly mobile species (e.g., mobility of cell organelles or particles, cell migration), high throughput FLIM screening, and investigating FRET dynamics. Recent hardware and software improvements allow for increased data acquisition speeds without sacrifices in lifetime resolution. rapidFLIMHiRes is available for PicoQuants's LSM Upgrade Kits and as a special configuration for the time-resolved fluorescence micrsocope MicroTime 200.

The Femtofiber Ultrafast 920 provides the best image brightness with short pulses, high power, and a clean temporal pulse shape. With TOPTICA's unique Clean-Pulse Technology, the FemtoFiber ultra 920 features the highest relative peak power and enables unmatched brightness in 2-photon microscopy without unwanted heating of the sample. Turn-key and intuitive operation and fully-integrated dispersion compensation ensure shortest pulses at the sample and built-in power control make the system extremely user-friendly. In this demonstration, Dr. Max Eisele unpacks the FemtoFiber Ultra 920 laser, explaining the components of the laser head and controller and highlighting the top-rated specs and capability of the device. Then, he shows the laser control software that enables users to adjust the operation mode, output power and other settings. We give a hands-on demonstration of integrating a the 920nm fiber-laser into a two-photon microscope that is optimized for the excitation and detection of green fluorescent proteins, typically used in neuroscience applications. We demonstrate that image quality can be improved by adjusting the laser's GDD compensation settings to raise the intensity and improve image contrast.
