Hi-
We have a confocal that we are planning to add TIRF capabilities to.
Would it be possible to share our Ar/Kr laser between the two inputs
with a fiber-optic splitter(i.e. half light going to the scan head, half
to the TIRF module)?  I'm new to TIRF so I'm not sure what sort of laser
power one needs.  It seems like for confocal at least we have laser
power to spare, so losing half of it wouldn't be a big deal.  Any
thoughts about this?  
Thanks-
Sarah
