-{{  :​confocal_pinhole.png?​340}} The Zeiss LSM 980 with Airyscan 2 is a [[https://​www.youtube.com/​watch?​v=rTkjQ6Q0p5I|point-scanning confocal microscope]] able to generate high-resolution three-dimensional images of thick specimens with high sensitivity,​ high speed and low photodamage. It is an inverted microscope especially suitable for live cell imaging and photobleaching experiments,​ equipped with a dark large cage incubator and a stage top incubator for temperature control and CO2 supply and with Definite Focus.3 for hardware focus control during long time-lapse acquisitions. The stage is motorized and furthermore equipped with a piezo for Z displacement so fast 4D imaging is possible in multiple stage positions, using the Tiles Advanced Setup of ZEN blue. Its [[http://​www.zeiss.com/​content/​dam/​Microscopy/​Products/​laser-scan/​LSM%20880/​zeiss-lsm880-airyscan-principle-672.jpg|Airyscan 2]] with 32 concentrically arranged GaAsP detection elements is able to collect all light from an Airy pattern simultaneously,​ allowing for increased resolution (120 nm laterally and 400 nm axially in SR mode, at 488 nm). It can also be used in [[https://​www.youtube.com/​watch?​v=tUiEa7vcggQ|Multiplex Mode]], which enables parallel excitation and detection in 4Y or 8Y modes. The result is a speed improvement by a factor of 4x/8x, while maintaining the sensitivity of Airyscan. Its scanning unit further includes two PMT detectors as well as a GaAsP detector for increased sensitivity (45% QE compared to ~25% QE for conventional PMT). It is equipped with lasers from violet to far red (405, 488, 561 and 639 nm excitation wavelengths).+{{  :​confocal_pinhole.png?​340}} The Zeiss LSM 980 with Airyscan 2 is a [[https://​www.youtube.com/​watch?​v=rTkjQ6Q0p5I|point-scanning confocal microscope]] able to generate high-resolution three-dimensional images of thick specimens with high sensitivity,​ high speed and low photodamage.
