Cameras

  • Visible camera: 2 megapixel or 4 megapixel; mounted atop the microscope to capture images from the lens.
  • Infrared (LWIR) camera: compact longwave infrared thermal camera using FLIR infrared video processing architecture; low power consumption. 12 µm pitch Vanadium Oxide (VOx) uncooled detector, 640 × 512 resolution. Available with 2.5x lens or 0.1–0.5x adjustable lens.
  • InGaAs camera: InGaAs sensor for extended infrared spectral sensitivity, 900–1700 nm, with high sensitivity and high frame rates at full resolution (higher still with a smaller ROI selected).
  • Visible/NIR camera comparison (Section 10): a visible (monochrome or color) camera captures 400–780 nm to produce human-vision-like high resolution images; a NIR camera captures 780–1400 nm, invisible to the human eye, useful beyond visible light and in low-light conditions.

SanjSOURCE (illumination module)

Nanosecond multi-wavelength light source, auto-selectable, up to eight LED wavelengths: 365, 405, 455, 470, 530, 625, 656, and 780 nm (visible), plus 970, 1050, 1300 nm (near-infrared). Other wavelengths available on request.

4D Nano Align / Piezo Controller (AF-100)

4D Nano Align houses the power source for the thermal stage's thermo-electric element and the piezo controller. The ATEC302 temperature controller monitors and sets stage temperature manually. Depending on configuration, 4D Nano supports Auto Focus 100 (AF-100) or Auto Focus 200 (AF-200).

Piezo Controller for AF-100: voltage amplifier with closed-loop control and a PC-interfaced display showing actuator position, operating mode, and internal amplifier temperature. AF-100 provides 3-axis XYZ positioning, 100 × 100 × 100 µm travel range, ±5° tip-tilt adjustment. Applications include drift-compensated control of piezo actuators with resistive measurement systems, lab, and industrial use.
