Applications
|
Confocal microscopy may be used to Investigate soft matter surfaces and interfaces allowing observation of the interaction of a wide range of molecules including polymers, colloids, electrode (sensor) surfaces etc. This instrument allows ultra-fast imaging and the widest range of excitation wavelengths in the visible range via a continuously tuneable laser |
| Specifications |
- Tuneable super continuum laser source: 470 to 670 nm in 1 nm increments,
- Laser argon source with 5 selectable wavelengths from 458 to 514 nm, diode laser 405 nm;
- Up to 8 simultaneous excitation wavelengths
- Five detection channels
- Greatest confocal sensitivity on the market.
- Configurable in upright and inverted configurations
- Ultra fast bidirectional scan (max 16KHz)
