Strategies for three-dimensional particle tracking with holographic video microscopy.

چکیده
The video stream captured by an in-line holographic microscope can be analyzed on a frame-by-frame basis to track individual colloidal particles' three-dimensional motions with nanometer resolution. In this work, we compare the performance of two complementary analysis techniques, one based on fitting to the exact Lorenz-Mie theory and the other based on phenomenological interpretation of the scattered light field reconstructed with Rayleigh-Sommerfeld back-propagation. Although Lorenz-Mie tracking provides more information and is inherently more precise, Rayleigh-Sommerfeld reconstruction is faster and more general. The two techniques agree quantitatively on colloidal spheres' in-plane positions. Their systematic differences in axial tracking can be explained in terms of the illuminated objects' light scattering properties.

Robustness of holographic video microscopy against defects in illumination
We numerically investigate how defects in the illumination system of a holographic microscope, in particular divergence and tilt of the illuminating laser beam, affect the measured properties of colloidal spherical particles. We show that under typical experimental conditions divergence and tilt of the laser beam do not affect the measured parameters significantly, confirming the robustness of ...
متن کامل3D Localization of weak scatterers in digital holographic microscopy using Rayleigh-Sommerfeld back-propagation
The Rayleigh-Sommerfeld back-propagation method is a fast and highly flexible volume reconstruction scheme for digital holographic microscopy. We present a new method for 3D localization of weakly scattering objects using this technique. A well-known aspect of classical optics (the Gouy phase shift) can be used to discriminate between objects lying on either side of the holographic image plane....

Rayleigh-Sommerfeld back-propagation can be used to reconstruct the three-dimensional light field responsible for the recorded intensity in an in-line hologram. Deconvolving the volumetric reconstruction with an optimal kernel derived from the Rayleigh-Sommerfeld propagator itself emphasizes the objects responsible for the scattering pattern while suppressing both the propagating light and also...
