This innovative module features our Exulus-HD2 spatial light modulator, enabling whole-field one-photon illumination. When paired with a high-speed camera, it captures up to 1000 fps via subROIs and can be integrated with two-photon SLM stimulation for a wide range of applications.
We are counting down the days until #SfN2025! Visit Thorlabs at booth # 2313 to explore our comprehensive line of imaging systems and voltage imaging technologies, designed to deliver high-performance and customizable solutions for your application’s needs.
These mounts are offered as side-optic retention or SM-threaded mounts and are compatible with Ø1/2", Ø1", or Ø2" optics. These mounts are highly customizable and available for one-off modifications to meet specific customer needs.
The customer-inspired Polaris®KA Aluminum Kinematic Mirror Mounts offer the reliable, long-term alignment stability of Thorlabs’ Polaris line but feature a lightweight design.
The system has a center wavelength of 795 nm, corresponding to the D₁ atomic transition line of rubidium (Rb), and is preconfigured for out-of-the-box use. A 780 nm version, corresponding to the D₂ transition of Rb, is also available.
Thorlabs' DBR79TK Turnkey Low-Noise Laser System combines low-noise drive electronics and temperature stabilization in a compact benchtop housing to deliver narrow-linewidth and low-relative intensity noise (RIN) performance.
The wavelength meter features a scanning Michelson interferometer with an internal reference laser, enabling high-accuracy measurements and a quick start-up.
The newly released WM202 Wavelength Meter is a general-purpose device designed for measuring the center wavelength of a continuous wave laser from 600 to 1700 nm (bandwidth ≤10 GHz) with an absolute accuracy down to 0.3 parts per million.
Visit us at booth # 415 during FIO+LS 2025! Speak to our staff from Thorlabs Colorado Center for Innovation to learn more about our featured demos involving quantum and optomechanical technologies. Here are a few products you’ll want to check out in Denver:
Resonant scanners are often used as the fast axis of a 2-dimensional raster scanning engine, with common applications including video microscopy, bio-scientific analysis, and fluorescence imaging.
The resonant scanner drives a permanently installed silver-coated mirror with high reflectance from 450 nm–10.6 µm. It supports a maximum beam diameter of 5 mm, offers a ±13° optical scan range, and operates at a fixed 8 kHz for faster scans than galvanometer systems.
Ideal for high-speed imaging, this resonant scanner is designed to deflect a laser beam from its original trajectory and continuously scan it over a user-controlled scan angle.
Our 1X telecentric objective includes an integrated wave plate, while our 2X and 4X models offer long working distances and high NA. The 10X and 15X objectives support two-photon imaging with built-in correction collars.
The 28X ApoChromat objective is our newest and highest performing model. Designed for water immersion multiphoton imaging, it features a 1.1 NA, chromatic correction beyond 1300 nm for three-photon imaging, and an integrated correction collar.
Thorlabs is returning to #SfN25 this November! Visit booth # 2313 to explore our latest imaging technologies, including new and improved microscopy objectives from Thorlabs Imaging Systems—engineered for researchers worldwide.
Today we honor the science of light and the countless ways it shapes our world. At Thorlabs, we’re proud to support both pioneering research and hands-on learning that spark the next generation of discoveries.
Her keynote, “Thorlabs: Adapting to a Changing World,” addressed leading a global company in volatile times and shared how she leverages our company culture, leaders, and teams to overcome challenges and remain successful in the photonics industry.
The 2-adjuster design improves stability by limiting degrees of freedom, while the 3-adjuster design enables tip, tilt, and Z-axis (optical axis) translation. Each mount has an SM2-threaded (2.035"-40) bore for Ø2" optics up to 0.5" (12.7 mm) thick or SM2-threaded components.
The KA2T 2-Adjuster and KA2TA 3-Adjuster Mounts use adjusters with Ø0.07" (Ø1.8 mm) through holes for side actuation, in addition to the 5/64" (2 mm) hex at each adjuster’s end. The KA2TB mount includes two low-profile hex adjusters to minimize its footprint.
