Fast image stacking with focus tunable
lenses
The trend in biomedical imaging towards
imaging of 3D cell cultures, whole embryos and in-vivo imaging in living
animals requires a solution for fast 3D imaging. Optotune’s focus tunable
lens is a proven alternative to expensive piezo-actuators and slow stepper
motors for the application of 3D image stacking. The new EL-16-40-TC lens is
ideally suited for widefield-, 2-photon- and confocal microscopy since it is
compatible with large back aperture microscope objectives. Certain optical
configurations allow to keep magnification constant during the z-scan.

Think different, think tunable!
When hard glass and
plastic components reach their limits, elastic polymer-based materials might be
your solution! As a pioneer in adaptive optics, Optotune offers a range of
tunable optical solutions that help you add versatility, compactness and fast
response to your optical systems.
