The Chameleon Vision from Coherent is a fully-integrated laser source for Multiphoton Excitation (MPE) microscopy.
The Chameleon Vision combines a wide tuning range, a high group velocity dispersion (GVD) compensation, high output power and excellent pointing stability.
The high (47,000fs2) GVD compensation means the Chameleon Vision can correct for the large GVD found in microscopes with many highly dispersive elements.
The GVD compensation is fully adjustable across the entire dynamic range, even to zero.
The extended wavelength tuning range (680 to 1080nm) enables optimum excitation of red fluorophores such as m-cherry.
The high output power (more than 2.5W) means the laser output can be optimised for both shallow and deep tissue imaging.
The Chameleon Vision is intended to maximise the potential of multiphoton microscopy techniques.
