A microtome comprises a support assembly; an actuator, mounted to the support assembly; a pair of oscillating flexure assemblies, held by the support assembly and each of which being located on one side of the actuator and oscillated by the actuator; and a blade assembly, mounted to each of the oscillating flexure assemblies so as to move in a direction same as the oscillating flexure assemblies.

Microtome and method for controlling and manufacturing the same

An apparatus and a method for laser beam shaping and scanning. The apparatus includes a digital micromirror device (DMD) including a plurality of micromirrors, configured to receive a first laser beam, adjust an axial position of a focal point of the first laser beam along a moving direction of the first laser beam by controlling a focal length of wavefront of a binary hologram applied to the DMD, and adjust a lateral position of the focal point on a plane perpendicular to the moving direction by controlling a tilted angle of a fringe pattern and a period of fringes of the binary hologram applied to the DMD, wherein the DMD simultaneously functions as programmable binary mask and a blazed grating.

High-speed binary laser beam shaping and scanning

A laser manufacturing system capable of fabricating 3-D resolved 2-D patterns. The system includes a pulse laser source generating a laser beam; a reflectance mirror arranged in the propagation path of the laser to reflect the laser, the mirror being controllable to adjust an emergent angle of the laser; a deformable dispersion unit located in the laser receiving path from the reflectance mirror and having an array of micromirrors controllable in response to the adjusted emergent angle to form required laser patterns from the reflected laser, the laser patterns having spatially separated optical spectral components with multiple propagation angles; and one or more focusing optical components positioned in the propagation path of the separated optical spectral components produced by the deformable dispersion unit; the focusing components recombine the optical spectral components at fabrication targets with patterns defined by the deformable dispersion unit. The laser pulse duration is shortest on or inside the fabrication target along the laser propagation path.
