The working distance is marked as 22 mm in this image, which is measured on-axis, from the center of the last lens. Practically, the mechanical working distance will be 20 mm.
We have designed a 20 mm working distance…

Overleaf is an online editor for LaTeX. It handles all of the typesetting for you. You just have to learn all of its codes, syntax, and idiosyncrasies. It works for collaborative document preparation.
It’s open source– you can grab the Overleaf repository on GitHub. It’s also available as SaaS. Just the person…
There have been several reports recently about ultrafast multiphoton imaging.
To start, here is a brief review of the conventional ways to get ms-level resolution:
(1) Cycle through fewer pixels. E.g., it is trivial to line scan a dendrite and get ms time resolution, and people have been publishing data like that for decades. …
