Where to Buy Laser Microscopes

Optical microscopes are used to study objects that are too small to be seen with the naked eye. This can be organic cells, semiconductor surfaces, or even single molecules. There are two different approaches in optical microscopy, either detecting near-field (SNOM) or far-field signals emitted by the investigated materials.

There are various methods for optical microscopy that utilize different light sources. For some microscopy techniques a simple white light source is sufficient, whereas more sophisticated methods require lasers as light source. Those can be single-mode diode lasers or multi-laser engines that deliver a continuous laser beam at one or several colors, some techniques rely on short laser pulses with femtosecond duration that can be provided by TOPTICA's ultrafast fiber lasers.

At FYLA we develop ultrafast fiber lasers with pulse durations in the range of nanosecond, picosecond, and femtosecond. Our lasers are used in a lot of applications, from microscopy (as two-photon microscopy, SHG, SPIM, OCT) up to characterization of the semiconductors, providing a greater level of robustness, higher lifetimes, and a cost-effective solution.

The MPX-series is a truly turn-key, integrated, compact, easy-to-use, maintenance-free and easy-to-install imaging platform which offers refinded multimodality. The user does not need to worry about laser alignment, detection efficiency, non-compatible or misaligned hardware over time. It can easily be operated even by non-experts. The built-in multimodality combination of imaging capabilities allows more features for correlative microscopy of any system available. Once the sample is positioned the user is allowed to switch modalities, resolution and imaging level (micro or macro) without changing the device.
