Embodiment 2

[0062] In the embodiment of the present invention, the excitation light should be able to achieve sparse excitation of the fluorescent marker, and its wavelength should be selected from the excitation spectrum of the fluorescent marker with stronger excitation. The light source of the excitation light can choose a laser light source with better monochromaticity.

Embodiment 3

[0064] In the embodiment of the present invention, the sheet-shaped excitation light beam can be obtained by the following method: After the excitation light generated by the light source is collimated and expanded, the sheet-shaped beam is formed by the sheet-shaped beam acquisition element; The depth of focus of the sheet-like beam, the thickness of the sheet-like beam with a large depth of focus passing through the illumination objective lens is greatly reduced, so that the beam is approximately an ultra-thin sheet-like parallel beam within the focal depth range.

[0065] As an embodiment of the present invention, the order of magnitude of the depth of focus of the sheet-like excitation beam is higher than the order of magnitude of the radial length of the applied sample layer in the direction of the excitation light path, and the thickness of the sheet-like excitation beam is less than 1 micron.

Abstract

The invention is suitable for the field of microscope imaging, and provides a three-dimensional fluorescence nano microscope imaging method and a three-dimensional fluorescence nano microscope imaging system, and image equipment. The method comprises the following steps of: producing exciting light; converting the exciting light into a laminar exciting beam; making the laminar exciting beam act on a sample; detecting a fluorescent light emitted by a fluorescent label in the sample layer on which the laminar exciting beam acts; transversely positioning to acquire the two-dimensional position of the fluorescent label; axially positioning to acquire the axial position of the fluorescent label; three-dimensionally reconstructing, combining the two-dimensional position with the axial position to acquire a three-dimensional nano resolution image of the sample layer on which the laminar exciting beam acts; axially scanning to acquire the three-dimensional nano resolution images of different sample layers; and acquiring the three-dimensional nano resolution image of the complete sample. Through the three-dimensional fluorescence nano microscope imaging method and the three-dimensional fluorescence nano microscope imaging system, and the image equipment, the high-precision three-dimensional nano microscope imaging is realized by taking the laminar light beam as the exciting light, and combining with axial scanning, and the method, system and equipment are suitable for three-dimensional microscope imaging of the thick sample, such as cells in the biological field and the like, and solve the problems that the positioning accuracy of molecules in the thick sample is low and the sample is difficult to observe.
