Abstract

An embodiment of a module system configured to interface with a microscope is described that comprises an input optical fiber configured to provide an excitation light beam from an external light source; dynamic alignment mirrors configured to adjust the position of the beams paths of the excitation light beam on a first plane; a coupling comprising a first end configured to engage with a complementary end, wherein the excitation light reflects off a turning mirror and travels along a beam path on a second plane through an orifice in the coupling; and an output optical fiber for delivering light from a sample to an external detector, wherein the light from the sample travels along the beam path on the second plane through the orifice in the coupling, reflects off the turning mirror and travels along one of the beam paths on the first plane to the output optical fiber.
