For excitation of fluorescence signals up to 4 lasers are installed. The lasers for
633 nm, and 594 nm are Helium Neon lasers; the lasers for 488 nm and 532nm
are solid state lasers. Both of these laser types have excellent beam quality and
stability.
Laser beams are combined with dichroic elements to enter the scanner in a
collinear alignment.
