AO-KIT BIO, Adaptive Optics Kit for Microscopy

The highest performance Adaptive Optics loop on the market, with the largest dynamic range and smallest wavefront error is now available from Axiom Optics.

 


















































The AO-kit Bio has been extensively used and demonstrated for the following techniques:

  1. -two-photon , second harmonic, third harmonic generation, widefield microscopy, click here to see images

  2. -super resolution , PALM, STORM and single particle tracking

  3. -retinal imaging and optical coherence tomography, click here to see images


In an independent study conducted by the Applied Optics group at the National University of Ireland (Galway), MIRAO 52 was found with the lowest wavefront error and largest dynamic range on an average of 100 compensated ocular wavefronts. To access and visualize the results, click here.
