TIRF - Total Internal Reflection Fluorescence

TILL TIRF Solutions

We currently support our own fully motorized microscope - the IMIC Digital Microscope, which when fitted with a Polytrope Imaging-Mode Switch allows switching between TIRF and epifluorescence illumination in milliseconds. In addition to that we support the Nikon TE2000, the Zeiss Axiovert 200/100 (M) and the Olympus IX50/70/71.
Our TIRF setup is fully integrated into our Imaging System. Apart from the equipment listed below you need the TILL Photonics Imaging System, and an optional controller for the AOTF. You can also buy "stand alone" TIRF components, meaning you have to integrate them into your existing setup. Should you already have a laser, please let us know the specifications. We are happy to assist you in integrating our TIRF equipment into your existing setup.

TIRF with single line laser

TIRF Equipment needed ("stand alone"): TIRF condenser, TIRF shutter, laser fiber, TIRF objective, filter set, adjustment kit, single line laser
Optional: adapter for mounting the laser fiber onto the laser
To upgrade this to a turnkey TILL Photonics Imaging TIRF system you need the complete Imaging system plus the equipment listed above.

TIRF with multi line laser

TIRF Equipment needed ("stand alone"): TIRF condenser, TIRF shutter, laser fiber, TIRF objective, filter sets, adjustment kit, multi line laser
Optional: adapter for mounting the laser fiber onto the laser, acousto-optic tunable filter (AOTF)
To upgrade this to a turnkey TILL Photonics Imaging TIRF system you need the complete Imaging system, and the AOTF control board plus the equipment listed above.

TIRF with multiple different lasers

Our Laser Line Combiner solution is a modular system. The idea is to be as flexible as possible by giving you the opportunity to select from a huge variety of different lasers and therefore laser lines. Please contact us directly for more information about this product.
