Description
X-Light NIR Confocal Imager offers:
- Unique spinning disk confocal microscope working in the range 700 nm – 1600 nm
- New optical system design: diffraction limited over 18 mm field of view in the imaging range 900 nm – 1600 nm
- Highly optimized AR coatings in the imaging range 800 nm – 1600 nm
Fluorescence microscopy in the near-infrared optical window has become a technique of choice for non-invasive in vivo imaging.
Using the spinning disk in the NIR window shows a ~20% and ~45% enhancement in lateral and axial resolution, respectively, compared to the NIR widefield imaging.
