Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a super-resolution photoacoustic imaging system and method based on a saturated absorption effect, and belongs to the technical field of signal modulation and demodulation and photoacoustic microscopic imaging. Background technique [0002] Microscopy has played a key role in the life sciences since it entered the stage of history. Optical microscopy, especially fluorescence microscopy, can study the three-dimensional structure of cells and biological tissues, and display specific biomolecules with high specificity through fluorescent labeling. It is these advantages that make microscopy widely used in biological fields of science and medicine. However, the existence of the optical diffraction limit causes the microscope to blur the imaging of objects with spatial features smaller than half the detection wavelength. In the past two decades, super-resolution microscopy has flourished, and various super-resolution microscopy te...
