MULTI-TRACK RAMAN WELL PLATE READER
A microplate reader simultaneously obtains Raman measurements from samples contained in non-adjacent wells. At least two Raman probes are positioned perpendicularly above or below the microplate to simultaneously acquire Raman spectra data of the non-adjacent liquid samples. Each probe is coupled to a laser and a spectrometer and includes a lens focusing laser light within the sample and collecting light from the sample for the spectrometer. The spectrometer may include a 2D imaging sensor (sCMOS or CCD) to image light from multiple probes simultaneously, spaced from one another to reduce crosstalk. A positioner moves the microplate plate or probes to acquire data from a different subset of non-adjacent samples, and may also vary laser focus within wells during data acquisition. Multiple fluorescence probes may simultaneously acquire fluorescence data from the same samples, or non-adjacent samples. Probes may be fiber-coupled and positioned within a reaction chamber of a liquid handling system.

A transmissive region through which the primary electromagnetic wave is transmitted is provided at a center of the secondary mirror. The transmissive region transmits the primary electromagnetic wave, which has been emitted from the electromagnetic wave emitter and passed through an opening of the primary mirror, thereby emitting the primary electromagnetic wave along an analysis optical axis of the reflective object lens.
METHOD FOR REFOCUSING AN OPTICAL ASSEMBLY
A method refocuses on an optical assembly target surface, using at least one beam originating from a short-pulse optical source, having at least one optical system for focusing the beam on the surface. Refocusing occurs after learning reference conditions for which the assembly is considered as focused. A focusing signal is detected representing a time overlap of the pulses between a beam reflected and a reference beam not reflected by the surface and comes from the source, one of the beams delayed by a delay line, the beam optical path on which the delay line is placed is varied, on the basis of the reference conditions, to cause the focusing signal to reach or go beyond a predetermined threshold. The focus is adjusted on the basis of variation knowledge in the path between the reference conditions and the conditions for which the focusing signal reaches or goes beyond the threshold.
