Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of microscopic imaging technology, and in particular relates to a device and method for realizing large-scale rapid depth analysis based on radio frequency labeled monochromatic light. Background Art

[0002] In microscopic imaging technology, imaging speed is an important factor affecting real-time dynamic detection. As fast lateral imaging technology becomes more mature, axial imaging speed has become the main factor limiting the speed of three-dimensional imaging. At present, axial imaging methods mainly include the following: (1) Mechanical scanning imaging. In this method, axial scanning imaging is achieved by moving the objective lens or the sample. The disadvantages of this method are slow scanning speed, large mechanical jitter influence, and inability to randomly select the target depth for measurement; (2) Excitation light wavefront modulation scanning imaging. In this method, the phase modulation device such as deformable mirror and acousto-optic is adjusted by current signal to adjust the wavefront of the excitation light to achieve axial scanning imaging. The disadvantages of this method are that the heat generated by the current causes the phase modulation device to have poor repeatability, the response speed of the deformable mirror is slow, and the scanning range of the acousto-optic device is small; (3) Remote focusing scanning imaging. In this method, the imaging objective lens and the remote focusing objective lens are precisely placed to match their entrance pupils, and the remote focusing objective lens is moved to the fast lateral imaging device. The method converts the axial scanning into a fast axial scanning at the focusing objective end to realize axial scanning imaging. The disadvantage of this method is that it cannot take into account both the scanning speed and the scanning range; (4) Conical lens axial imaging. In this method, a conical lens is used to replace the traditional microscope objective. After passing through the conical lens, the parallel light is focused into a line in the depth direction. According to the reversible principle of the optical path, the signals at different depths are transmitted through the conical lens and converted into parallel light in different radial directions. The use of an array detector to identify the signal in the radial direction can realize the identification of signals at different depths. The disadvantage of this method is that the refresh speed of the array detector is slow; (5) Optical coherence tomography. This method images the sample axially by analyzing the interference signal between the sample arm and the reference arm. The disadvantage of this method is that the use of an array detector or a linear array detector leads to limited imaging speed. Summary of the invention

[0033] Two embodiments are described below: Embodiment 1:

[0034] The embodiment of the present invention realizes large-scale rapid depth analysis by radio frequency tagging of monochromatic light. The structure of the embodiment of the present invention is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the hardware includes a detection light source 1, an acousto-optic deflector 2, a concave total reflection mirror 3, a beam expander 4, a beam combiner 5, a beam splitter 6, a spatial light modulator 7, a beam splitter / combiner 8, a microscope objective 9, a filter 11, a focusing lens 12, and a single pixel detector 13.

[0035] in: The detection light source 1 is a monochromatic light source, which is used to excite the sample.

[0036] The acousto-optic deflector 2, the concave total reflector 3, the beam expander 4 and the beam combiner 5 are used to perform radio frequency encoding on the output light beam of the detection light source 1. After encoding, the detection light is divided into multiple beams and the amplitude modulation frequency of each beam is different.

[0037] The beam splitter 6 and the spatial light modulator 7 are used to perform phase modulation on each encoded detection light beam. After modulation, each light beam has a different wavefront and can be focused to different depths.

[0038] The beam splitter / combiner 8 is used to reflect each beam of excitation light and transmit the signal light generated by each beam of excitation light; The microscope objective lens 9 is used to focus each beam of excitation light to different depths and collect signal light generated by each beam of excitation light.

[0039] The filter 11 is used to filter out stray light in the signal light.

[0040] The focusing lens 12 is used to focus the signal light onto the single pixel detector 13 , and the single pixel detector 13 is used to measure the signal light.

[0041] The dynamic working process of the present invention is: Turn on the detection light source 1, set the driving signal of the acousto-optic deflector 2 to generate multiple first-order diffraction beams with different frequency shifts, and each first-order diffraction beam is combined with the zero-order transmission beam directly passing through the acousto-optic deflector 2 through the beam combiner 5 to achieve radio frequency tagging. Set the gray scale of each pixel of the spatial light modulator 7 to perform different phase modulation on each beam of detection light after radio frequency tagging, and then each beam of detection light is focused to different depths of the sample through the microscope objective 9. The signal light generated at each depth is measured simultaneously by the single-pixel detector 13, and each signal light is identified according to the marked radio frequency frequency. Embodiment 2:

[0042] The present invention can be used to perform depth analysis on layered samples in a single measurement. Figure 2 An example diagram of the implementation of depth resolution technology using radio frequency labeled monochromatic light for measuring layered samples.

[0043] The detection light source 1, whose output light is divided into zero-order transmitted light and first-order diffracted light after passing through the acousto-optic deflector 2, wherein the zero-order transmitted light propagates along the direction of the incident light, and the propagation direction of the first-order diffracted light is deflected. When the acousto-optic deflector 2 is loaded with driving signals of multiple frequencies, multiple beams of first-order diffracted light are generated, and the frequency of each beam of first-order diffracted light is frequency shifted relative to the incident light, and the frequency shift amount is equal to the frequency of the corresponding acousto-optic deflector 2 driving signal.

[0044] The concave total reflection mirror 3 is used to reflect the first-order diffraction light. The distance between the concave total reflection mirror 3 and the acousto-optic deflector 2 is equal to its focal length. The first-order diffraction light becomes parallel light after being reflected by the concave total reflection mirror 3.

[0045] The beam expander 4 is used to expand the zero-order transmitted light. The expanded zero-order transmitted light and the reflected first-order diffracted light are combined and beat by the beam combiner 5. After the beat, the amplitude modulation frequency of each combined light beam is different, thereby realizing radio frequency tagging. Each beam of beat light is reflected to different pixel units of the spatial light modulator 7 by the beam splitter 6. By setting the gray scale of each pixel unit of the spatial light modulator 7, different wavefront modulation is performed on each beam of beat light. The modulated beat light passes through the beam splitter 6, is reflected by the beam splitter / combiner 8, and then is focused to different layers of the layered sample 10 through the microscope objective 9. The microscope objective 9 simultaneously collects the signal light generated by each layer of the layered sample 10. Each signal light passes through the beam splitter / combiner 8 and the filter 11, and then is focused to the single pixel detector 13 by the lens 12. The filter 11 is used to filter out stray light other than the signal light. The single pixel detector 13 measures the signal light generated by each layer at a time. Since the radio frequency frequency of each signal light corresponds to the radio frequency frequency of its excitation light one by one, depth analysis can be performed according to the radio frequency frequency of the signal light.

[0046] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be considered as the scope of protection of the present invention.
