Carl Zeiss LSM 780 NLO

The Zeiss LSM 780 NLO is a dual multi-photon + visible light confocal laser scanning microscope.

It is equipped with a 34 channel spectral array and features a tunable (690-1080nm) Coherent Chameleon TiS laser which combines high resolution and a significant increase in depth acquisition.  This microscope is fully motorized in X, Y and Z.

Training Materials

The following are a collection of training documents and videos specifically for our LSM 780. 

We ask that you start with our ‘Introduction to Confocal Microscopy’ video before viewing subsequent videos that will take you through a full training session for basic confocal microscopy and super-resolution imaging with the Airyscan.

For an overview on multi-photon microscopy, please start with our ‘Introduction to 2-Photon Microscopy’ video.
