Laser divided-aperture differential confocal sensing technology with improved axial resolution.
In this study, we found that the axial response curve of divided-aperture confocal microscopy has a shift while the point detector has a transverse offset from the optical axis. Based on this, a novel laser divided-aperture differential confocal sensing technology (LDDCST) with absolute zero and high axial resolution, as well as an LDDCST-based sensor, is proposed. LDDCST sets two micro-regions...
متن کاملNon-axial-scanning multifocal confocal microscopy with volume holography
Wide-field fluorescence microscopy is a commonly used imaging technique by researchers and clinicians. A standard wide-field microscope has no optical sectioning capabilities and this limits its use in imaging thick biological samples. Although standard wide-field fluorescence microscopy with deconvolution techniques can improve image quality [1], it does not provide true optical sectioning, du...
متن کاملThree-dimensional point spread function model for line-scanning confocal microscope with high-aperture objective.
Point Spread Function (PSF) modelling is an important task in image formation analysis. In confocal microscopy, the exact PSF is rarely known, thus one has to rely on its approximation. An initial estimation is usually performed experimentally by measuring fluorescent beads or analytically by studying properties of the optical system. Yet, fluorescent line-scanning confocal microscopes are not ...
متن کاملNon-mechanically-axial-scanning confocal microscope using adaptive mirror switching.
A non-axial-scanning confocal microscope employing a monochromatic light source has been developed. The system controls the defocus of an objective into three to .ve optimized states by using a membrane-adaptive mirror, and determines the axial height of an object according to the confocal output value with each defocus. A genetic algorithm is employed to optimize the adaptive mirror shape, wit...
متن کاملConfocal microscopy by aperture correlation.
Most confocal microscopes do not produce images in real time with nonlaser light sources. The tandem scanning confocal microscope does produce such images but, because the pinhole apertures of the Nipkov disk must be placed far apart to reduce cross talk between neighboring pinholes, only 1% or less of the light available for imaging is used. We show that, by using aperture correlation techniqu...
