Application pathway
Microscopy
Connect imaging and illumination paths with lenses, spectral filters and beamsplitters.
Define the application
Identify the illumination and detection bands, numerical aperture needs and mechanical constraints.
Build a component shortlist
- Lenses
- Optical Filters
- Beamsplitters
Before detailed design
Check performance at system level: an individual component specification does not establish the performance of the assembled instrument. Record assumptions and confirm them against the selected component datasheets.
Find matching components
Explore the product catalog with this application selected, then refine the optical specifications.
