MIM-340


MIM-340 Laser microscope with a long-running object table


Function

A device controlled from a personal computer designed to conduct non-contact non-destructive studies of submicron structures with a nanometer resolution in the field of materials science and determining their location on the scale of the entire material science sample with nanometer accuracy. It is a powerful tool for solving a wide range of problems in electronics, materials science, optical production, metrology, biomedical research.


Advantages

  • Optical microscope with an outstanding lateral resolution, allowing to explore 3D images of dynamic objects in real time with an order of magnitude superior to the best optical microscopes.
  • The sample preparation process does not require painting and fixing.
  • Possibility of visualization of optically anisotropic microstructure regions of less than 100 nm in size;
  • The possibility of recording nanodynamics and nanomovie recording
  • High speed of response
  • Non-contact measurements and minimum laser exposure
  • No need to calibrate the instrument
  • Possibility of examining coated samples


Areas of use

  • Analysis of the living blood cells morphology
  • Express diagnostics of autoimmune disorders
  • New methods for assessing the biocompatibility of materials and coatings
  • Evaluation of the effectiveness of antitumor drugs
  • Interaction of nanoparticles with cells and Interaction of cells with artificial materials
  • Determination of the viability of spores of pathogenic fungi.
