Adaptive optics for microscopy

Home / Applications / Adaptive optics for microscopy

Optical components inside microscopes, such as objectives, lenses and mirrors, as well as any biological samples being examined can induce aberrations. Over the past 20 years, Imagine Optic has developed a number of solutions using Adaptive Optics (AO) to correct those aberrations and improve the contrast and resolution of acquired images for various microscopy modalities. Advanced use of AO also enables wavefront engineering and improving areas of imaging such as 3D single-molecule super-resolution at the cover slip as well as deeper in the biological sample.
