Dual scan head

Two light paths enable simultaneous two-photon imaging and uncaging with exceptional performance.

Various scanning arrangements

The scan mirrors on the imaging path can be arranged as a galvo-galvo, resonant-galvo or galvo-galvo-resonant scan head.

Extended wavelength range

The HyperScope optics are coated for wavelengths up to 1400 nm to give you more experimental flexibility.

Image up to 4 dyes

Compatible with ChromoFlex to enable two-photon imaging of up to four dyes with highly-sensitive GaAsP photomultiplier tubes.

Deep imaging

Outstanding images of the finest structures deep within your sample. Combine with optical sectioning to produce excellent three-dimensional models.

Pioneering slim design

The compact footprint and flexible design of the Multiphoton system allows easy integration with other techniques such as electrophysiology.

Easy access to the light path

Simply remove the cover of the scan head to gain access to the light path.

Optional side port

If one of the scanning paths is not mounted, then you can gain access to an optional side port for increased functionality.

These measurements were taken with two HyperScope systems, employing a Nikon 16X 0.8 NA 3 mm WD objective at 850 nm. The measured field of view at a scan angle of ±15° was 1 mm.

The Point Spread Function measurements (below) were carried out by imaging 0.2µm polystyrene fluorescent beads mounted on the surface of a coverslip. From this figure you can see how our unique relay lens system enables having comparable resolution across the field of view.

The relay lenses also provide a constant intensity across the field of view, which can be observed on both the 3D surface plot and the 2D plot profile below.

Field flatness was mapped using a homogeneous fluorescent sample. Please note that the field of view of 1 mm corresponds only to the top portion of the plot.
