The system has key advantages in live-cell recordings where long term drift in intensity can be a problem with alternative light sources. The ultra-high stability and "instantaneous" vibration-free switching and intensity modulation are valuable in a wide range of applications such as combined imaging and electrophysiology, voltage sensitive dye studies and high-speed tracking. The facility to "gate" the light source directly from the camera and thus only expose the specimen whilst the camera is integrating helps to reduce photobleaching and also prevents bleedthrough during frame readout.
Ultraviolet and white LEDs are also available for uncaging applications and brightfield illumination.
