Fibre-coupled LED Light Sources

Modular Fibre-coupled LED Light Sources from 365 to 630 nm   

Prizmatix Fibre-coupled High & Ultra High Power LED Devices   

The fibre-coupled Ultra High Power LED series provides almost x10 increase of power in comparison with regular high-power LED devices. The Ultra High Power LEDs are an effective replacement of Mercury and Xenon lamps as well as lasers in many power-demanding applications such as fluorochrome activation in optogenetics, photocycle kinetics, fluorescence microscopy, chemical reaction activation, uncaging and numerous others.

Prizmatix’s Ultra High Power LED head features built-in adjustable aspheric collimator to provide collimated beam suitable for direct connection to the epi-fluorescence port of a microscope.

The Ultra High Power LED head can be easily modified for fibre optic applications with a specially designed Fibre Coupler adaptor for high NA fibres. This ensures maximum light coupling efficiency and makes it possible to achieve extreme light power from the distal end of fibres suitable for optogenetics applications.

Key Features

• Ultra high-power LED light
• TTL external triggering
• Easy connection to:
  • Microscopes
  • Fibre-optics
  • Lightguides
• Excellent for fluorescence excitation
• Optional band pass filtering
• Precisely adjustable, stable power

The Ultra High Power LED can be used with a full range of other Prizmatix products. These include: Fibre Coupler, Liquid Light Guide Coupler, Beam Combiner, Filter Wheel, Beam Switcher, Rotary Joint, and others that combine to form the comprehensive Optogenetics Toolbox for researchers working in neuroscience, neurobiology, biochemistry and biophysics.

High-power Fibre-coupled Mic-LED Light Sources

Fibre-coupled Mic-LEDs are available in a wide range of wavelengths (shown right) plus white, along with diverse fibre-optic options and accessorires such as collimators and focussers. Every Mic-LED is shipped with a specific test report providing information on the total beam power and its emission spectrum.

Key Features

• Compatible with standard SM1 (1.035"-40) thread
• No excessive heat, no speckles, no vibrating or moving parts
• Adjustable power - 10-turn potentiometer or analogue input (0-5 Vdc)
• Low optical noise (< 0.03% rms)
• Fast triggering via TTL input (Rise / Fall time < 5 µs)
• Opto-Isolated TTL and analogue inputs eliminate ground-loop
• USB control (optional)
• Can be driven in either continuous or pulsed modes
