Abstract

See full text

A solid state illumination system is provided as a replacement for conventional arc light, metal halide and Xenon white-light sources for applications in life sciences including, microscopy, fluorescence microscopy, and endoscopy. The solid state illumination system generates high quality white light output from LED light sources. In an embodiment, the solid state illumination system is coupled to a microscope using a liquid light guide. The liquid light guide is coupled to a microscope using an adjustable collimator which optimizes the light output for input to the optical train of the microscope.
