Large format motorised stage for upright microscopes

Meadowlark Optics’ Liquid Crystal Tuneable Optical Filters facilitate spectral analysis of not only a collimated beam, but of an entire object. With no moving parts, a resolution down to 0.001nm and a tuning rate of less than 100ms, these robust filters are calibration free and can replace literally 1000s of filters for applications including fluorescence and absorption microscopy, Raman spectroscopy and solar astronomy. At 38…

Meadowlark Optics manufactures a range of world leading Spatial Light Modulators (SLMs) providing precision beam control. The 2-dimensional Hex series are designed for adaptive optics applications as real-time programmable phase mask for wave front correction, such as a variable iris with no moving parts. With its high optical power handling characteristics, the Linear SLM can be used to alter the temporal profile of femto sec…

The UIS2 mirror units are optimized for maximal fluorophore performance, producing uniform and highly efficient light transmittance. The filter efficiency allows for the use of weaker excitation light, thereby minimizing photobleaching and damage to the sample.
