Microscope Slide Power Sensor
Microscope Slide Power Sensor
The PD300-MS microscope slide power sensor measures optical power at the sample plane of a microscope. The silicon photodiode measures from 350-1100 nm at optical powers ranging from 3 µW to 1 W and is designed for the needs of fluorescence excitation measurements. The thin power sensor has a footprint of 76.0 x 25.2 mm matching that of a standard microscope slide. The sensing area is sealed and cleanable, allowing it to easily measure the output of high NA objectives that use immersion medium such as water / oil / glycerol as well as in air.
- Measurement of optical intensity after the microscope objective
- Low angular dependence for high N.A. objectives
- Can be used with air, water or oil immersion objectives See All Features
