چکیده

Super-resolution microscopy has revolutionized cellular imaging in recent years1-4. Methods relying on sequential localization of single point emitters enable spatial tracking at ~10-40 nm resolution. Moreover, tracking and imaging in three dimensions is made possible by various techniques, including point-spread-function (PSF) engineering5-9 -namely, encoding the axial (z) position of a point source in the shape that it creates in the image plane. However, a remaining challenge for localization-microscopy is efficient multicolour imaging - a task of the utmost importance for contextualizing biological data. Normally, multicolour imaging requires sequential imaging10, 11, multiple cameras12, or segmented dedicated fields of view13, 14. Here, we demonstrate an alternate strategy, the encoding of spectral information (colour), in addition to 3D position, directly in the image. By exploiting chromatic dispersion, we design a new class of optical phase masks that simultaneously yield controllably different PSFs for different wavelengths, enabling simultaneous multicolour tracking or super-resolution imaging in a single optical path.

3-D PSF fitting for fluorescence microscopy: implementation and localization application.

Localization microscopy relies on computationally efficient Gaussian approximations of the point spread function for the calculation of fluorophore positions. Theoretical predictions show that under specific experimental conditions, localization accuracy is significantly improved when the localization is performed using a more realistic model. Here, we show how this can be achieved by consideri...

Optimal 3D single-molecule localization for superresolution microscopy with aberrations and engineered point spread functions.

Photo-activation localization microscopy is a far-field superresolution imaging technique based on the localization of single molecules with subdiffraction limit precision. Known under acronyms such as PALM (photo-activated localization microscopy) or STORM (stochastic optical reconstruction microscopy), these techniques achieve superresolution by allowing only a sparse, random set of molecules...

Dispersion, aberration and deconvolution in multi-wavelength fluorescence images.

The wavelength dependence of the incoherent point spread function in a wide-field microscope was investigated experimentally. Dispersion in the sample and optics can lead to significant changes in the point spread function as wavelength is varied over the range commonly used in fluorescence microscopy. For a given sample, optical conditions can generally be optimized to produce a point spread f...
