Here you will find a list of important components to build up your own TIRF setup with four laser lines: from filters to camera to test samples and more. Please be aware that the following content does not claim to be complete and does not automatically fulfil all the needs you require from your system but just gives a brief overview about important parts. Also remember that not only the components itself but also the interplay between them has strong influence on the performance of your microscope.

Even though you do not plan to build your own system this list gives you a good overview about the complexity of an optical system. Please be aware that the displayed components and manufacturers are only suggestions and also alternative components or manufacturers can do a similar job.
