The new gSTED offers great resolution improvement in xy and z planes
Super resolution fluorescence imaging
We have the new (summer 2015) gated STED. Brilliant microscope for imaging fixed samples with greatly enhanced resolution in xy and z. The new gSTED is a huge improvement on the earlier versions which bleach the sample. My lab loves this microscope!

STED and STELLARIS: Super-resolution re-imagined
Our STED technology joins the STELLARIS platform to provide you the fastest way of imaging beyond the diffraction limit. Obtain cutting-edge nanoscopy results in no time with astounding image quality and resolution, while protecting your sample. STED super-resolution allows you to study multiple dynamic events simultaneously, so you can investigate molecular relationships and mechanisms within the cellular context.
The seamless integration of STED and STELLARIS provides easy access to STED directly from the confocal interface, making it just a few clicks away. Now you can get more insights from your sample, because every detail matters.
STELLARIS STED and STELLARIS 8 STED
STELLARIS offers two options to incorporate STED in your system: STELLARIS STED, the all-in-one STED solution, and STELLARIS 8 STED, our advanced upgradable system. Both deliver the same benefits in terms of STED performance, so you can focus on the extra STELLARIS capabilities when deciding which option best meets your needs

STELLARIS Confocal Microscope
Leica Microsystems’ family of confocal microscopes – STELLARIS 5 and STELLARIS 8 – takes confocal imaging to a new level. Now you can see more, discover more, and do more than ever before, with STELLARIS.
Nanoscopy meets Lifetime: Introducing τ-STED
Fluorescence lifetime provides a new perspective for STED nanoscopy. With the unique τ-STED functionality from Leica Microsystems, your scientific research will benefit from super-resolution STED offering excellent performance with a much lower light dose and getting rid of undesired background signal. τ-STED combines the optical signals from STED and the photophysical information from the fluorescence lifetime at unprecedented speeds. This new approach to STED uses phasor analysis in a novel way. τ-STED enables an increased STED resolution and elimination of uncorrelated background noise, even at low excitation and STED powers.
In this application note, find out how you can use τ-STED to perform:
- STED imaging at cutting-edge resolution with dramatically lower excitation and STED light dose
- Gentle live-cell STED imaging for extended time-lapse experiments
- Multicolor applications with the best STED probes
Expanding the frontiers of confocal live cell imaging with STELLARIS
To address the specific challenges of live cell confocal imaging and help researchers get closer to the truth, Leica Microsystems has re-imagined confocal microscopy, designing its entirely new STELLARIS platform from the ground up. Here, explore how STELLARIS unlocks the full power and potential of live cell studies by overcoming many common limitations and fully integrating fluorescence lifetime-based information to add a new dimension to your research.
- Image longer without photodamage, and with enhanced sensitivity for the fluorophores you use most.
- Study dynamic events at exceptionally high frame rates—capturing up to 428 frames per second without compromising spatial resolution.
- Multiplex beyond spectral options, resolving overlapping fluorescence spectra, and adding the fluorescence lifetime dimension to your experiments.
TauSense: add an extra dimension to your confocal results with integrated fluorescence lifetime information
Leica Microsystems’ TauSense technology is a set of imaging tools based on fluorescence lifetime. Found at the core of the STELLARIS confocal platform, it will revolutionize your imaging experiments. Whatever your sample or staining procedure, fluorescence lifetime information is always there. Now TauSense gives you access to this additional information and expands the potential of your research with the possibilities provided by different TauSense modes.
In this application note, find out how you can use TauSense technology to:
- Explore a new dimension of information in every confocal experiment with instant access to functional information.
- Improve image quality by removing unwanted fluorescence signals that mask your data and prevent you from truly seeing your sample.
- Separate fluorescent species based on lifetime information, allowing you to distinguish fluorescent signals with similar spectra.
