Confocal White Light Microscopy
Non-contact optical techniques for 3D surface data acquisition like short coherence (white light) interferometry, optical profilers or fringe projection are well established for applications with low surface complexity, where the average surface roughness amplitude is small and neglectable compared to the form amplitudes or where the aspect ratios of amplitudes and spacings are small. In genera...
متن کاملCoherent artifact suppression in line-field reflection confocal microscopy using a low spatial coherence light source.
Line-field reflection confocal microscopy (LF-RCM) has the potential to add a dimension of parallelization to traditional confocal microscopy while reducing the need for two-axis beam scanning. LF-RCM systems often employ light sources with a high degree of spatial coherence. This high degree of spatial coherence potentially leads to unwanted coherent artifact in the setting of nontrivial sampl...
متن کاملUse of a white light supercontinuum laser for confocal interference-reflection microscopy
Shortly after its development, the white light supercontinuum laser was applied to confocal scanning microscopy as a more versatile substitute for the multiple monochromatic lasers normally used for the excitation of fluorescence. This light source is now available coupled to commercial confocal fluorescence microscopes. We have evaluated a supercontinuum laser as a source for a different purpo...
متن کاملConfocal reflection microscopy: the "other" confocal mode.
When most biomedical researchers think “confocal microscopy”, they usually have fluorescence imaging in mind. There is a very good reason for this connection. Many biomedical applications of the confocal microscope have utilized its optical sectioning power, combined with the exquisite specificity of immunofluorescence or fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) to produce improved images of m...
متن کاملFiber-optic confocal microscopy using a spatial light modulator.
We present a novel fiber-optic confocal microscope in which the scanning operation is achieved by use of a spatial light modulator (SLM) to sequentially illuminate individual fibers or patterns of multiple fibers. Experimental images are presented, and the optical-sectioning capability of the device is demonstrated. The novel SLM-based system is more optically efficient, achieves higher contras...
