Problems solved by technology

However, since the wave plate itself is not an optical device with wavelength selective characteristics, in order to minimize the influence on the excitation light, the wavelength of the excitation light can only be limited to a narrow range according to the dispersion curve of the wave plate
Therefore, the easySTED architecture is only suitable for monochromatic super-resolution microscopy

Abstract

The invention discloses a multi-color super resolution microscope system with an automatic alignment function, belonging to the field of microscopic imaging. The system couples an excitation beam anda suppression beam into the same single mode polarization-maintaining fiber to form a mixed beam. Only the suppression beam is affected while the excitation beam is unaffected when the mixed beam is phase modulated via a phase modulation assembly. According to the multi-color super resolution microscope system with the automatic alignment function, the influence of beam drift on the performance ofthe super resolution microscope system can be avoided, so that the system structure is simplified, and the system stability is improved. Compared with the prior art, the system disclosed by the invention can conveniently realize multi-color imaging.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of microscopic imaging, in particular to a multi-color super-resolution microscope system with an automatic alignment function. Background technique [0002] Like most optical imaging, the Abbe diffraction limit has restricted the improvement of the resolution of the microscope system since the invention of the microscope. Early microscope systems were all wide-field imaging systems with limited imaging resolution. This situation was not improved to some extent until the invention of the confocal microscope system (Confocal Microscope). The basic concept of confocal microscopy was proposed by Marvin Minsky in 1957 (see Microscopy Apparatus, US Patent US3013467A), but the technique was not truly instrumented until 1978 (see Christoph Cremer et al. microscope with high resolution and depth of field", Microscopia Acta 81, 31-44(1978)). Compared with the traditional wide-field microscope system, the confocal microscope...
