Our Highlights at LASER World of POTONICS in Munich

Drop by our booth B2.216 at discuss your needs with our experts

We are looking forward to meeting you in person from June 27 to 30 at the LASER World of PHOTONICS in Munich. We are bringing exciting innovations in all three product lines with us: First, Prima, a compact three-color picosecond laser module. Next, the PDA-23 single photon detector array, available in combination with the MultiHarp 160 multi-channel TCSPC module. Last but not least, the FluoMic add-on for our FluoTime spectrometers, which enables time-resolved micro-photoluminescence spectroscopy. Come by our booth to see these and other new products live.

PicoQuant’s new confocal microscope, Luminosa, makes FLIM easy

Featured in Microscopy Today

Our new confocal microscope, Luminosa, is featured in the latest issue of Microscopy Today. In the article, our applications specialist Dr. Maria Loidolt-Krüger describes how Luminosa simplifies fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIM). With its unique combination of state-of-the-art hardware and cutting-edge software, the microscope makes time-resolved fluorescence microscopy accessible to researchers of all levels while delivering high-quality data.

Luminosa brings smFRET to a new level

An article in PhotonicsViews

Read in the new issue of PhotonicsViews, how our new Single Photon Counting Confocal Microscope Luminosa brings single molecule Förster Resonance Energy Transfer (smFRET) to a new level. Quantitative single molecule and time-resolved fluorescence techniques offer new insights into many samples in life and materials sciences. So far, their adoption has been slow because expert knowledge was required for correct data acquisition and analysis. Now, we have developed Luminosa, a confocal miroscope that combines state-of-the-art hardware with cutting-edge software to deliver high-quality data while simplifying daily operation. The article shows how Luminosa streamlines smFRET experiments.

Online presentation of our new Single Photon Counting Confocal Microscope Luminosa

The recording of the presentation is now available

Our latest time-resolved confocal microscopy system Luminosa pairs highest data quality with remarkably simple day-to-day operation. In a product presentation on October 6, 2022, Product Manager Dr. Evangelos Sisamakis and Application Specialist Dr. Mathias Bayer demonstrated how Luminosa easily integrates into any researcher's toolbox to become a time-efficient and reliable companion for scientists starting to explore the use of time-resolved fluorescence methodologies as well as for experts wanting to push the limits further.
