چکیده
We demonstrate a new design for a light-scattering microscope that is convenient to use and that allows simultaneous imaging and light scattering. The design is motivated by the growing use of thermal fluctuations to probe the viscoelastic properties of complex inhomogeneous environments. We demonstrate measurements of an optically nonergodic sample, one of the most challenging light-scattering applications.

Microscope-based static light-scattering instrument.
We describe a new design for a microscope-based static light-scattering instrument that provides simultaneous high-resolution images and static light-scattering data. By correlating real space images with scattering patterns, we can interpret measurements from heterogeneous samples, which we illustrate by using biological tissue.
متن کاملFourier transform light scattering angular spectroscopy using digital inline holography.
A simple and practical method for measuring the angle-resolved light scattering (ARLS) from individual objects is reported. Employing the principle of inline holography and a Fourier transform light scattering technique, both the static and dynamic scattering patterns from individual micrometer-sized objects can be effectively and quantitatively obtained. First, the light scattering measurement...
متن کاملEvaluation of a spectrally resolved scattering microscope
A scattering microscope was developed to investigate single cells and biological microstructures by light scattering measurements. The spectrally resolved part of the setup and its validation are shown in detail. The analysis of light scattered by homogenous polystyrene spheres allows the determination of their diameters using Mie theory. The diameters of 150 single polystyrene spheres were det...
متن کاملScattering information obtained by optical microscopy: differential dynamic microscopy and beyond.
We describe the use of a bright-field microscope for dynamic light scattering experiments on weakly scattering samples. The method is based on collecting a time sequence of microscope images and analyzing them in the Fourier space to extract the characteristic time constants as a function of the scattering wave vector. We derive a theoretical model for microscope imaging that accounts for (a) t...
متن کاملOptical properties of tissues quantified by Fourier-transform light scattering.
We employ Fourier-transform light scattering, a technique recently developed in our laboratory, to study the scattering properties of rat organ tissues. Using the knowledge of the complex field associated with high-resolution microscope images of tissue slices, we extracted the scattering mean-free path l(s) and anisotropy factor g, which characterize the bulk tissue for three different rat org...
