STED super-resolution instrumentation

Peregrine Photon

STED modules and custom inverted microscopes for labs that need practical nanoscale fluorescence imaging.

Products

Products for super-resolution microscopy: a STED module for inverted confocal systems, or a custom inverted microscope when the experiment needs a purpose-built platform.

Built from Polytechnique Montréal microscopy work.

Peregrine Photon was founded in 2025 out of Polytechnique Montréal and is building practical STED instrumentation in Montréal.

Built in Montréal Incubated at Quantino
STED integration Beam shaping, calibration, and inverted microscope workflows
Microscopy team Photonics, biomedical optics, instrument engineering, and STED applications

Led by Guillaume Ramadier, Lucien Weiss, and Caroline Boudoux.

About Peregrine Photon

Technology

STED microscopy uses a shaped depletion beam to restrict fluorescence to a smaller effective spot, enabling resolution beyond conventional confocal microscopy when the sample, dye, optics, and acquisition conditions support it.
