Combining Light Sheet and Confocal – The New Leica TCS SP8 DLS Module
24 Feb 2015In this technical note learn how the new Leica TCS SP8 DLS makes light sheet microscopy easier. The invention of the unique TwinFlect mirror, which deflects the illuminating light sheet at a 90° angle, allows the integration of the light sheet module into the vertical axis of every inverted Leica TCS SP8 without compromising confocal functionality.
