Calibration of Fluorescence Microscopes
We propose a new durable multi-dimensional ruler for the calibration and the alignment of fluorescence microscopes (wide-field, confocal, multiphoton), thanks to non-photo-bleaching fluorescent sub-micrometer patterns embedded in glass in three dimensions. This new and robust tool enables the measurement of stage repositioning, detector’s features, illumination homogeneity, both lateral and axi...
متن کاملDynamic curvature measurement using fibre-optics
Current methods of measuring spinal curvature are limited. Radiographic analysis is associated with significant radiation exposure and clinic based methods, such as inclinometers and goniometers can only resolve static postures [1]. Laboratory systems, capable of dynamic measures are either constrained by line-of-sight or a clearly defined operating field, which may be affected by the presence ...
متن کاملImaging properties of high aperture multiphoton fluorescence scanning optical microscopes
A theory for multiphoton fluorescence imaging in high aperture scanning optical microscopes employing finite sized detectors is presented. The effect of polarisation of the fluorescent emission on the imaging properties of such microscopes is investigated. The lateral and axial resolutions are calculated for one-, twoand three-photon excitation of p-quaterphenyl for high and low aperture optica...
متن کاملThe Peregrine soliton in nonlinear fibre optics
The Peregrine soliton is a localized nonlinear structure predicted to exist over 25 years ago, but not so far experimentally observed in any physical system1. It is of fundamental significance because it is localized in both time and space, and because it defines the limit of a wide class of solutions to the nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE). Here, we use an analytic description of NLSE bre...
متن کاملImaging X-Ray Fluorescence Using Microchannel Plate (MCP) Optics
X-ray fluorescence imaging is a widely used, nondestructive method for determining the distribution and relative concentration of metals within a sample. To create a two-dimensional map of an image, x-rays are usually sent through a 25-250 μm wide aperture, then point by point an image is scanned. Microchannel plates contain an array of tiny holes that can be used to collimate x-rays fluorescin...
