Technical Features
Spectral range (confocal/widefield): excitation: 400-750 nm; emission: 400-850 nm
Software controlled bypass mode: widefield to confocal
Fastest spinning disk in the market: 15.000 rpm rotation speed for artefact-free high speed acquisitions
Tailor-made spinning disks: 50 um pinholes with two different pinole spacing. High throughput and custom pattern spinning disks available on demand
Axial Resolution (FWHM): ~600 nm (High NA 1.4)
Field of view: 18 mm
Exchangeable, synchronized and sealed: the spinning disk box is one of the most versatile features of the new V3. Dust protection and synchronization signals out to the camera make it reliable and faster. Perfect for high speed acquisitions
Lateral Resolution (FWHM): ~230 nm (High NA 1.4) diffraction limited
Motorized filter wheels: 8-positions cleanup filter wheel (available on request), 5-positions dichroic filter wheel, 8-positions emission filter wheel
"The X-light V2 spinning disk enables us to routinely perform complicated live-imaging experiments for extended periods of time, using a variety of probes spanning dyes through genetically-encoded probes."
