MicroPoint Manual
Laser Illumination & Ablation System
MicroPoint makes possible laser illumination and ablation of near diffraction limited geometries. MicroPoint allows simultaneous viewing of the laser application in widefield and/or fluorescence through the microscope eyepieces or with the imaging system in real time.
Systems consist of a tunable, fiber optic pumped laser source, coupling and beam steering optics, microscope adapter, and a selection of beam splitters and interference filters. Angular and spatial alignment of the illumination at the sample target is manually controlled via a 2-axis joy stick. Focus in the z-direction is manually controlled with a knurled focus ring. The MicroPoint manual systems use a motorized or manually driven optical attenuator to adjust spot size and power. Units may be upgraded in the field to include computer control and additional wavelengths.
