AURORA-3P is a broadband tunable ultrafast laser source specifically developed for three-photon (3P) imaging research. With a stable optical and mechanical design, AURORA-3P offers outstanding performance parameters. Its narrow pulse width and high repetition rate perfectly meet the laser peak power requirements for the three-photon excitation process. The system provides a wide wavelength tuning range, including the 1300nm and 1700nm wavelengths required for three-photon imaging, making it an ideal light source for ultrafast three-photon imaging, enabling higher-quality fluorescence labeling signals.
