Diya 2.0

Microplate Illuminator with Active Temperature Control

A precision microwell plate illuminator designed for mammalian, bacterial, and yeast cell applications as well as photoredox catalysis. It offers unparalleled flexibility for controlling light delivery, allowing independent adjustment of wavelength, intensity, and temporal patterns for each individual well.

The Diya 2.0 serves similar purposes as the optoPlate, the optoPlate-96, the Light Plate Apparatus (LPA), LITOS, Lustro, and the optoWell. It is also known as a microplate illuminator, a microwell plate illuminator, a multiwell plate illuminator, a 96-well optogenetic illuminator, a programmable LED array, an opto plate, an optogenetics plate, a microplate photostimulation device, and an optogenetic light delivery device.

Up to 7 wavelengths
From UVA through the visible spectrum to NIR, with high uniformity and irradiance on every channel
Notice for users in Germany
