Hi !

 

Does any one has experienced using UV lines , 353 and/or 363 nm with the Yokogawa CSU-X1 Head. Yokogawa claim that in the range of 400 - 700 their microlenses work fine, but have no experience with lower wavelengths.

 

Any input (pros + cons) will be greatly appreciated.

 

All the best

 

Renato
