Bergamo® III Series Multiphoton Microscopy Platform

Following the principle that the microscope should conform to the specimen, rather than the other way around, we created a completely modular multiphoton imaging platform that adapts to a wide range of experimental requirements. Our Bergamo III Multiphoton Microscopes enable simultaneous readout and manipulation of neuron populations at higher speed, greater depth, and higher intensity than with traditional research techniques, such as using microelectrodes.

Choose the Microscope that Fits Your Experiment

The modular nature of our Bergamo III Multiphoton Microscopy Platform allows us to modify configurations to meet individual experimental needs or adjust the functionality of a microscope after installation. We have outlined the highlights of Bergamo III modularity below; for detailed information on these features and more, please see the Modules tab. To understand how our Bergamo III microscopes have been used in laboratory settings, please see the Applications and Publications tabs.

TL10X-2P Objective. The outer box represents the FN40 FOV of 2.82 mm x 2.82 mm.

 

Higher Sensitivity Detection to Protect Your Sample

To maximize detection efficiency, we utilize high-sensitivity GaAsP PMTs in a non-descanned geometry in our Bergamo III microscopes. This allows the users to detect faint signals from deep samples and/or work at a reduced laser power, protecting their sample from photodamage. 

  • Up to Four Simultaneous Detection Channels
  • Non-Descanned Geometry
  • High-Sensitivity GaAsP PMTs
    • Cooled PMTs for Weak Signals
    • Non-Cooled PMTs for Larger Collection Angles
  • Multialkali PMTs Also Available
  • Free-Space Photodetectors for Other Imaging Modalities

Click to Enlarge

Because emitted signal can be scattered by thick tissue as it exits the specimen, we designed our detection modules with wide collection angles. With full collection angles of 8°, 10°, or 14° (for a Ø20 mm entrance pupil), our proprietary detection modules enable deep physiological imaging.

Image Deeper with Super-Broadband Scan Optics

The excitation wavelength ranges supported by Bergamo III microscopes accommodate the most recent lasers, fluorophores, and techniques. Our scan optics can be optimized for wavelengths up to 1800 nm, allowing users to see deeper into their sample utilizing three-photon imaging techniques.

  • Super-Broadband Scan Optics Optimized for:
    • Photoactivation / Uncaging
    • Two-Photon Imaging
    • Three-Photon Imaging

Our Super-Broadband Scan Optics Cover Wavelengths for Photoactivation, 2P, and 3P Imaging

Ultra-Stable Multiphoton Platform

All of our Bergamo III microscope bodies can be configured with a fiber-coupled 2P laser on one or both of their scan paths. Fiber-couples eliminate the need for complicated alignment procedures and provide a more stable imaging configuration compared to free-space lasers.

  • Alignment-Free Imaging
  • Highly-Stable Imaging Configuration
  • Minimized Microscope Footprint Provides Extra Space for Sample or Subject
  • Allows Quick and Easy Reconfiguration of Microscope

Bergamo® III Modules

Thorlabs' Bergamo III microscopes are modular systems that can be customized in the design process to meet the exact needs of the experiment. 

 


Click to Enlarge

The primary scan path of this Bergamo III microscope features a Galvo-Resonant scanner for high-speed image acquisition. A Galvo-Galvo scanner has been installed on a secondary pathway allowing for simultaneous, area-specific photoactivation.

Galvo-Resonant Scanners, Galvo-Galvo Scanners, and Spatial Light Modulators

Bergamo III microscopes can be configured with one or two co-registered scan paths to propagate, condition, and direct an input laser beam. Each path can utilize a resonant-galvo-galvo scanner, galvo-resonant scanner, galvo-galvo scanner, and/or a spatial light modulator (SLM). These choices allow the user to optimize each experiment as needed for high frame rates, high sensitivity, and/or targeted exposure of the regions of interest.

Resonant-Galvo-Galvo Scanners for Multimodal Scanning
Thorlabs offers 8 kHz and 12 kHz resonant-galvo-galvo (RGG) scanners. The design of our RGG scanners is registered under US Patent 10,722,977. This multimodal scanner provides features of both the galvo-resonant and galvo-galvo scanners in a single scan head. Our 8 kHz scanners utilize the entire field of view and offer a maximum frame rate of 400 fps, while our 12 kHz scanners provide an increased frame rate of 600 fps.

Galvo-Resonant Scanners for High-Speed Imaging
Thorlabs offers 8 kHz and 12 kHz galvo-resonant scanners. Our 8 kHz scanners utilize the entire field of view and offer a maximum frame rate of 400 fps, while our 12 kHz scanners provide an increased frame rate of 600 fps.

Galvo-Galvo Scanners for User-Defined ROI Shapes
Galvo-galvo scanners support user-drawn scan geometries (lines, polylines, squares, and rectangles) and also support custom photoactivation patterns (circles, ellipses, polygons, and points). They offer consistent pixel dwell times for better signal integration and image uniformity.

Spatial Light Modulators for Simultaneous Targeting
Unlike scanners, which physically move from point to point, spatial light modulators (SLMs) use holography to diffract the beam and shape it in a user-defined pattern. This includes general beam shaping as well as the creation of multiple focal points at the FOV; the latter allows multiple sites in a sample to be photoexcited simultaneously. To learn more about Spatial Light Modulation, please see our Highlights tab.

 

Bergamo Piezo Objective Scanner

Upright Bergamo III Microscope Equipped with a PFM450E Piezo Objective Scanner for Fine Z-Positioning of a Thorlabs TL15X-2P Objective

Fast Z-Focus Options for Volume Imaging

We offer two options for fast Z-focus control in our Bergamo III microscopes: a remote focus system based on liquid crystal technology, or a Thorlabs PFM450E high-speed piezo objective scanner.

Remote Liquid Crystal Focus
Our remote focus system uses liquid crystal lenses to switch between 16 discrete focal planes quickly and without introducing vibrations that could disturb the focus or the specimen. Total Z-travel range is objective dependent:

  • ~400 µm Travel Range with a TL10X-2P Objective
  • ~180 µm Travel Range with a TL15X-2P Objective

Piezo Objective Scanner
The piezo objective scanner offers access to a 450 µm Z-travel range with 3 nm closed-loop resolution and a 25 ms typical settling time for discrete steps as large as 100 µm. It is ideal for precisely setting the focal position of the microscope as well as high-speed, high-resolution Z scanning.

Close-Up of a Bessel Beam

Volumetric Imaging Technique Using Bessel Beams

Thorlabs offer an ultra-fast imaging technique that uses a Bessel beam to provide video-rate volumetric functional imaging of neuronal pathways and interactions in vivo. These unique beams are non-diffractive and self-healing, which allows them to maintain a tight focus and even reform as they pass through tissue. This technique is offered for Thorlabs' Bergamo III multiphoton microscopes and Thorlabs' Multiphoton Mesoscope

The images to the right depict a Bessel beam and a Gaussian beam, respectively. As you can see in the images, the Gaussian beam has a singular point of focus that progressively becomes weaker as it diverges from the central point, whereas the Bessel beam has a beam annulus that maintains its focus.

To learn more about this technique, please see our Highlights tab.

 

Bergamo III Non-Rotating Body
Click to Enlarge

Upright Bergamo III systems are equipped with periscopes that permit the microscope's full travel range in X, Y, and Z to be used without compromising the optical performance.

Click to Enlarge

This Bergamo III Microscope has been configured with two fiber-coupled scan paths offering a compact footprint for in vivo applications.

Periscopes and Fiber Couples

Most lasers used in multiphoton microscopy are delivered by a free-space beam. The Bergamo III's ability to translate the objective around the focal plane in up to four axes (X, Y, Z, and θ) also requires the beam path to translate along the same axes while maintaining alignment. Bergamo III systems overcome this engineering challenge using multi-jointed periscopes. Periscopes are configurable on both Bergamo upright and rotation bodies and accommodate all excitation wavelengths.

We also offer fiber-coupled Bergamo III configurations on one or both of their scan paths. Fiber-coupled lasers eliminate the need for complicated alignment procedures associated with free-space lasers, provide an ultra-stable imaging configuration, and take up less space compared to pericopes. Fiber couples offered with Bergamo III microscopes are designed for use with 2P lasers and are compatible with all microscope body configurations.

 

Bergamo III Filter Exchange
Click to Enlarge

Emission filters and dichroic cubes are held behind magnetically sealed doors on the front of the PMT detection module.

Super-Broadband Scan Optics

Bergamo III microscopes feature proprietary scan optics that are optimized and corrected for excitation wavelengths within the 450 - 1100 nm, 680 - 1300 nm, or 800 - 1800 nm wavelength range, ideal for photostimulation, two-photon imaging, and three-photon imaging, respectively. These broad ranges, extending from the visible well into the near infrared, were chosen to support the latest OPO systems, as well as dual-output lasers.

Large-Angle Signal Collection Optics

Deriving the most signal from limited photons is the fundamental goal of any detection system. By positioning the PMTs immediately after the objective (a "non-descanned" geometry), light that is scattered by the sample, which therefore appears to originate outside the objective's field of view, still strikes the PMTs and adds to the collected signal. This is a benefit unique to multiphoton microscopy. Collecting beyond the objective's design field of view greatly enhances overall detection efficiency when imaging deep in tissue.

In the epi direction, we offer signal collection angles of 8°, 10°, or 14°, while in the transmitted direction, we offer a signal collection angle of 13° (angles quoted for an objective with a Ø20 mm entrance pupil). Our collection modules can optionally be outfitted with mechanical shutters for photoactivation experiments.

Easy-to-Reach Emission Filters and Dichroic Holders

Bergamo III systems are fully compatible with industry-standard fluorescence filter sets that include Ø25 mm fluorescence filters and 25 mm x 36 mm dichroic mirrors. Unlike competing designs, Thorlabs' detector modules have magnetic holders that make it simple and quick to exchange filters for different measurements. We also offer detection modules for large-area Ø32 mm fluorescence filters and 32 mm x 44 mm dichroics, which support greater collection angles for increased signal.

Detectors in Epi and Transmitted Directions

We employ high-sensitivity GaAsP PMTs in our multiphoton systems, which offer high quantum efficiency, aiding in imaging weakly fluorescent or highly photosensitive samples. Our PMTs can either be thermoelectrically cooled for improved sensitivity toward weak signals or non-cooled for a smaller package size and greater numerical aperture. Multialkali PMTs are also available.

All Bergamo III microscopes can be equipped with either two or four detection channels in the epi direction, and/or two detection channels in the forward direction. The user can configure the forward-direction channels to detect the same fluorescent tags as the epi-direction PMTs, raising the microscope's sensitivity toward thin, weakly fluorescent specimens.

 

Bergamo III Controller

Bergamo III XYZ Rotation Body Controller

Multi-Axis Controller with Touchscreen

This controller is specifically designed for rotating Bergamo III microscope bodies. It uses knobs to control up to five motorized axes. On rotating systems, a rocker switch changes between fine objective focusing and translation of the elevator base. Each axis can be disabled on an individual basis in order to maintain a location along the desired direction.

The integrated touchscreen lets two spatial locations be saved and retrieved locally. Up to eight spatial locations can be saved on the computer running ThorImage®LS. The touchscreen also reads out the position of every motor.

 

Bergamo III Objectives

Objectives

Bergamo III microscopes accept infinity-corrected objectives with M34 x 1.0, M32 x 0.75, M25 x 0.75, or RMS threads. Together, these options encompass the majority of low-magnification, high-NA objectives used in multiphoton microscopy. With a large field number up to 40, our scan optics completely utilize the optical designs of these specialized objectives, offering enhanced light-gathering ability compared to competing microscopes using the same objectives.

 

Bergamo III Rigid Stands

Thorlabs' Manual Rigid Stands

Rigid Stand Sample Holders

Thorlabs' Rigid Stands are rotatable, lockable, low-profile platforms for mounting slides, recording chambers, our Z-axis piezo stages, and custom experimental apparatuses. Each fixture is supported by a solid Ø1.5" stainless steel post for passive vibrational damping, which is in turn held to the workstation by the red post holder.

A locking collar maintains the height of the platform, allowing it to easily rotate into and out of the optical path, and a quick-release mechanism holds the post in place once the desired position is achieved.

For a motorized option, we offer our MPM250 motorized vertical rigid stand, offering precise height adjustment with a 1" travel range.

Scientific Cameras

Our low-noise sCMOS and CMOS cameras were designed for full compatibility with Thorlabs’ multiphoton microscopy systems. Useful for widefield and fluorescence microscopy, they are capable of visualizing in vitro and in vivo samples using reflected light and fluorescence emission. They work in conjunction with the epi-fluorescence module to help locate fiducial markers, and they also enable imaging modalities that do not require laser exposure.

Thorlabs' cameras are driven by our internally developed ThorCam software package. The sCMOS camera is available with a 2.1 MP sensor, and our CMOS cameras are available with either a 1.3 MP, 2.3 MP, 5 MP, 8.9 MP, or 12.3 MP sensor. Generally speaking, cameras with lower resolution offer higher maximum frame rates. These cameras also feature a separate auxiliary port that permits the image acquisition to be driven by an external electrical trigger signal.

Bergamo III microscopes are also directly compatible with any camera using industry-standard C-mount or CS-mount threads.

User-Installable Dodt Contrast and DIC Imaging Modules

The modular construction of the Bergamo III makes it exceptionally easy for the user to convert the microscope between in vitro and in vivo applications. Our user-installable trans-illumination modules for Dodt contrast, laser-scanned Dodt contrast, and differential interference contrast (DIC) take less than 5 minutes to attach or remove from the microscope body. These modules are available for both rotating and upright bodies.

Each option is paired with our basic 3-axis controller, which optimizes the illumination conditions by translating our motorized condenser stage over a 1" range. This versatile design is compatible with air and high-NA oil immersion condensers designed by Nikon.

To complement these modules, we manufacture slim-profile rigid stand sample holders that are ideal for positioning slides between the transmitted light module and the objective.

Thorlabs recognizes that each imaging application has unique requirements.

ベッセルビームを用いた高速ボリューム画像取得
当社ではHoward Hughes Medical Institute(HHMI)とNa Ji教授(カリフォルニア大学バークレー校)の協力を得て、Bergamo®多光子レーザ走査型顕微鏡用のベッセルビームモジュールをご提供しています。 神経細胞活動のin vivoボリュームイメージングを行うには、サブミクロンの空間分解能とミリ秒の時間分解能の両方が必要です。従来の方法では、回折限界のガウシアンビームを走査して3次元画像を作成しますが、ベッセルビームを用いた多光子イメージングでは、軸方向に細長い集光スポットを利用してボリューム画像を取得します。励起光の被写界深度が拡大されたことにより3次元の体積が2次元に投影され、2次元フレームレートは効率的に3次元ボリュームレートに変換されます。

Ji氏の先駆的な研究で実証されたように、このベッセルビームを用いた高速のイメージング技術はシナプス解像度を有し、Ca2+ダイナミクスや、マウスとフェレットの視覚皮質における樹状突起スパインの調整特性などの計測ができます。 下の画像ではこのベッセルビームを用いた多光子イメージング技術の能力を示しています。Thy1-GFP-Mマウスの脳切片の300 x 300 μmの範囲を、それぞれベッセルビーム(左)およびガウシアンビーム(右)で走査した画像を比較しています。ガウシアンビームを集光して取得された45枚の光学的なスライス画像を垂直に積み重ねるとボリュームイメージが得られますが、長さ45 μmの集光スポットを有するベッセルビームを使用すると、1回走査するだけで同じ構造的な特徴を見ることができます。これはボリュームイメージングの速度が大幅に向上することを示しており、この手法はin-vivoでまばらにラベル付けされた試料を調べるのに適しています。

3光子イメージング
当社では、Bergamo多光子顕微鏡に3光子イメージング技術を導入できるように、800~1800 nmの波長範囲に対応する走査光路用の光学素子を開発しました。3光子励起は深部組織イメージングに適していますが、一般には波長1300 nmまたは1700 nm付近の高パルスエネルギーの励起光源が必要です。2光子イメージングと比較して、3光子イメージングでは組織による散乱が少なく、また焦点の合わないバックグラウンド光が抑制されるので、信号対バックグラウンドの比が改善されます。

下の写真のように、3光子イメージングが可能なシステムの構成要素として、2光子と3光子の同時イメージングをサポートするダイクロイックミラーや、広帯域でのサンプリングができる繰り返し周波数の低いレーザをサポートするエレクトロニクスを含めることができます。ThorImage®LSソフトウェアでは、3光子検出のための重要な機能を強化しています。例えば、3光子信号の検出を励起パルスと同期させ、最良の信号対雑音比が得られるように位相遅延を制御することができます。詳細については「ThorImageLS」タブをご参照ください。

2光子および3光子イメージングの構成。

 

空間光変調器(SLM)を用いた同時多点光刺激
当社の空間光変調器(SLM)を用いると、ホログラフィックパターンにより試料内の複数の位置の光刺激を同時に行うことができます。この空間光変調器はフェムト秒パルスレーザによる2光子励起用に設計されており、光刺激用レーザのビームプロファイル全体に渡って位相を操作し、ユーザが決定した数百の焦点を生成することができます。

下の図では、空間光変調器を使用した2光子刺激の利点を、通常の2光子刺激や単一光子による光刺激と比較して示しています。単一光子による光刺激では、1つの細胞だけをターゲットにすることができず、ターゲットとする細胞に近接する細胞も刺激してしまいます。この問題は、1つの細胞をターゲットにできる分解能を有する2光子刺激を利用することで解決します。しかし、その場合でも同時にターゲットにできる細胞は1つに制限されます。2光子刺激と空間光変調器を組み合わせると、多数の焦点を生成して複数の細胞を同時に刺激することができるため、その制限を克服することができます。刺激用ビームの形状は光刺激の効果が向上するように成形することができます。これは、単一視野内の異なる深度にある神経集団を活性化させるために重要な機能です。 空間光変調器の位相マスクのパターンは素早く切り替えることができ、複数の独立した焦点を任意のシーケンスで個々のターゲットに向けることができます。校正プロセス、ホログラムの生成、外部ハードウェアとの同期などは、すべてThorImage®ソフトウェアで管理され、シームレスな制御が可能です。 詳細については「ThorImageLS」タブをご覧ください。

Application Summary

In this application, scientists are interested in neural connections and intercellular movement. With multiphoton imaging, they are able to trace the direction and speed of ions moving through channel membrane proteins or neurotransmitters moving from one neuron to another. This research requires a Bergamo microscope configured for high-resolution and high-speed imaging of multiple fields of view (FOVs). This area of research often requires both in vivo and in vitro imaging within the same study, so within each configuration, our transmitted light modules can be installed or removed by the user in just a few minutes, making it exceptionally easy to switch between the two imaging modalities.

Laser-Scanned Two-Photon SHG+Dodt Gradient Contrast of Zebrafish Embryo

Application Summary

Neurogenetic studies require a wide variety of experimental setups for in vivo research. Multiphoton imaging is ideal for studying live organisms, especially embryos, as it reduces the occurrence of photobleaching and phototoxicity that is common with other light microscopy techniques. For this application, we recommend a Bergamo configured with a small footprint and large throat depth to provide ample room for sample mounts and experimental apparatus, such as the large setup used for Drosophilia studies by Chen et al. (click here for supplementary videos).
