Desarrollo de una unidad optoelectrónica para iluminación de áreas muy pequeñas, apta para estudios de comportamiento de células bajo estímulos luminosos

Abstract

A novel optoelectronic unit to deliver a laser light in a very small area is presented. It is able to control accurate optical power and the modulation mode (continuous, external and digital pulses), emitted by the laser diode. The optoelectronic unit is used in researches about the influence of the light in the behavior of cellular elements by the Neurophysiology Group of University of Cantabria.
