Schott Fiber-Optic Backlight 4.0" x 5.0 A08925 with Calibrated Uniform Illumination
Product Description
The Schott Fiber-Optic Backlight A08925 provides a calibrated and uniform light source essential for precise optical and imaging applications in molecular diagnostics, biotechnology, and biomedical engineering research. This compact backlight features a calibrated DDL-bulb system delivering ±13 to ±15 gray scale levels at a mean luminance of 200, with a gamma setting fixed at 1.0, using Schott's patented diffusion process to ensure highly uniform illumination across the 4.0" x 5.0" active area.
Key technical specifications and features include:
- Uniformity: Achieves diffuse, uniform light optimized for crisp edge definition or soft incident illumination, critical for image analysis and fluorescence applications. Uniformity scan data is available upon request.
- Optical Components: Incorporates a white acrylic diffuser plate selected to balance uniformity and intensity effectively, combined with a protective infrared (IR) filter to prevent damage to the plastic fiber bundle.
- Durability and Design: The backlight housing is constructed from rugged, black anodized aluminum, ensuring mechanical stability and resistance to laboratory environments. The fiber bundle is sheathed in flexible PVC-covered metal tubing for enhanced protection and longevity.
- Compatibility: Designed primarily for use with strobes and ColdVision Series light sources. Use with alternative sources lacking IR filtering is not recommended due to potential fiber damage.
- Versatility: Supports dual and quad backlight configurations and can be custom ordered in additional sizes and combinations to meet specific illumination needs in bioprocessing or synthetic biology workflows.
- Form Factor: Low profile and compact design facilitates integration into tight laboratory setups, making it suitable for biopharmaceutical production pipelines requiring consistent and reliable optical backlighting.
This fiber-optic backlight is widely adopted in precision molecular cloning imaging, fluorescence analysis, and live-cell imaging setups where controlled uniform illumination enhances image quality and measurement accuracy. Its robust construction and optical calibration make it an essential component for advanced biotechnology research and clinical diagnostics relying on optical clarity and reproducibility.
