Abstract:Laser microsurgery is a powerful tool for neurobiology used to ablate cells and sever neurites in-vivo. We compare a relatively new laser source to two well-established designs. Rare-earth-doped mode-locked fibre laser that produce high power pulsed radiation recently gained popularity for industrial uses. Such systems are manufactured at high standards of robustness and low maintenance requirements typical of solidstate lasers. We demonstrate that an Ytterbium-doped fibre femtosecond laser is comparable in pr… Show more
