Embodiment 1

[0044] see figure 1 The wavelength bands of the near-infrared excitation light and the near-infrared depletion laser used in the fluorescence loss method in this embodiment are both between 760nm and 2000nm, and are used to excite rare earth-doped up-conversion nanomaterials. Rare earth ions in rare earth doped upconversion nanomaterials can be divided into three types according to their functions: activating ions, sensitizing ions and energy transfer ions. The steps are:

[0045] (1) Use near-infrared excitation light to excite rare earth-doped upconversion nanomaterials. After the activated ions absorb the near-infrared excitation light through ground state absorption, the energy is transferred to the sensitized ion through energy transfer upconversion and excited state absorption, and then The sensitized ions emit fluorescence in the ultraviolet, visible or near-infrared bands through the up-conversion process, that is, multi-photon fluorescence is excited.

The fluorescence depletion method is characterized in that near-infrared depletion light is used to cause stimulated absorption in the sensitizing ions of rare earth doped upconversion nano materials, the energy of near-infrared excitation light is transferred to energy transfer ions, and depletion of the multiphoton fluorescence of the upconversion nano materials is achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of optical microscopy technology, and in particular relates to a fluorescence loss method for realizing double-near-infrared wavelength excitation, and a microscopic imaging method and a microscopic imaging device using the fluorescence loss method. Background technique [0002] In the conventional optical imaging process, according to Abbe's principle, the limit resolution that the optical system can achieve is about half of the wavelength of the incident light. In order to improve the resolution, scientists have proposed many methods to break the diffraction limit, collectively referred to as super-resolution imaging methods. One of the important methods is stimulated radiation depletion (STimulatedEmissionDepletion, STED). STED microscopy consists of an excitation beam and a phase-modulated hollow beam. In STED, the method of stimulated radiation is used to forcibly quench the fluorescence at the periphery of the...
