Leica''s acousto-optical beam splitter (AOBS) replaces all collections of mirror-based beam splitters (gray splitters, dichroic splitters, and multichroic splitters) for visible light illumination in confocal microscopy.
The Leica AOBS (Acousto-Optical Beam Splitter) is an advanced beam-splitting technology integrated into Leica''s confocal microscopy systems, such as the TCS SP2 and SP5 models.
To make the researcher''s life easier, Leica has introduced a revolution-ary technology in confocal microscopy, which overcomes all drawbacks of dichroic mirrors described above: the acousto optical
An alternative is the acousto-optical beam splitter (AOBS) which has freely tunable reflection notches. On average 95% of the emitted light is transmitted between these narrow notches.
With the AOBS, a freely programmable and highly efficient single or multi-chroic beam splitter has been achieved. Thus, the Leica TCS SP2 AOBS allows spectacular simultaneous imaging of even four fluo

Transmission of Leica acousto-optical beam-splitter (AOBS). This plot shows the transmission of the beam-splitter to light originating from a point in the specimen.
With the AOBS, a freely programmable and highly efficient single or multi-chroic beam splitter has been achieved. Highly sensitive detectors are optimized for different spectral bands.
The Leica AOBS provides an innovative approach to beam splitting that maximizes photon transmission through its flexible and instantly tunable design.
