TILL Photonics Polychromatic Illumination System
The Polychrome II is the second generation of a rapidly tunable excitation source from TILL Photonics. The Polychrome II is comprised of a xenon light source, galvanometric scanner, mount grating and mirror optics. The monochromatic light is coupled to specially designed epi-fluorescent condensers via a solid quartz fiber. The specially designed condensers are available for most microscopes and provides for optimal illumination.
