Beam Path Configuration Guide for Fluorescence Microscopy

3.1

Optical Elements in the Configuration Control Window

All wavelength values are given in Nanometer [nm].
3.1.1

Main Dichroic Beam Splitter (MBS)

• A MBS XXX/YYY deflects the indicated laser lines onto the specimen and allows the emitted
fluorescent light to pass through.
Example: MBS 458/514, MBS 488/543/633
• A MBS XXX+ is a special type of a main dichroic used for IR multiphoton excitation. The MBS 690+
for example, deflects laser light with a wavelength longer as 690 nm onto the specimen and allows
fluorescent emission light in the visible range below 660 nm to pass through.
Example: MBS 690+
• A MBS XXX/YYY+ is a combination of a MBS XXX and MBS YYY+ used for simultaneous IR
multiphoton and single photon excitation.
Example: MBS 405/710+.
