Development of novel experimental and computational methods for three-dimensional coherent and super-resolution microscopy

Adrien Charles-François Raymond Descloux

Optical microscopy is one widely used tool to study cell functions and the interaction of molecules at a sub-cellular level. Optical microscopy techniques can be broadly divided into two categories: partially coherent and incoherent. Coherent microscopy te ...

3D nanometrology of transparent objects by phase calibration of a basic bright-field microscope for multiple illumination apertures

Martinus Gijs, Daniel Migliozzi, Bingying Zhao

Optical retrieval of the structure of transparent objects at the nanoscale requires adapted techniques capable of probing their interaction with light. Here, we considered a method based on calibration of the defocusing with partially coherent illumination ...

Development of Sample-Adaptable Holders for Lightsheet Microscopy

Thierry Laroche, Olivier Burri, Arne Seitz, Lalit Kumar Dubey

Multi-user core microscopy facilities are often faced with the challenge to adapt or modify existing instruments. This is essential in order to fulfill the requirements of the user community, who wants to image a wide range of model organisms with varying ...

Simultaneous dual-contrast three-dimensional imaging in live cells via optical diffraction tomography and fluorescence

Christian Depeursinge, Pierre Marquet, Chen Liu, Shanshan Kou

We report a dual-contrast method of simultaneously measuring and visualizing the volumetric structural information in live biological samples in three-dimensional (3D) space. By introducing a direct way of deriving the 3D scattering potential of the object ...

Digital staining through the application of deep neural networks to multi-modal multi-photon microscopy

Demetri Psaltis, Navid Borhani

Deep neural networks have been used to map multi-modal, multi-photon microscopy measurements of a label-free tissue sample to its corresponding histologically stained brightfield microscope colour image. It is shown that the extra structural and functional ...

Endogenous SHG and 2PEF coherence imaging of substructures in neurons in 3D

Sylvie Roke, Carlos Alberto Macias Romero, Marie Eve Pascale Didier, Claire Jacqueline Léa Teulon

Neuronal morphology, long-distance transport and signalling critically depend on the organization of microtubules in the cytoskeleton. Second harmonic generation (SHG) imaging has been recognized as a potentially powerful tool for in situ label-free neuroi ...

Waveguide-Based Platform for Large-FOV Imaging of Optically Active Defects in 2D Materials

Aleksandra Radenovic, Suliana Manley, Vytautas Navikas, Martina Lihter, Evgenii Glushkov, Anton Stroganov, Mukeshchand Thakur, Anna Archetti, Juan Francisco Gonzalez Marin, Jean Camille Benjamin Comtet

Single-molecule localization microscopy (SMLM) is a powerful tool that is routinely used for nanoscale optical imaging of biological samples. Recently, this approach has been applied to study optically active defects in two-dimensional (2D) materials. Such ...

Imaging the aerobic granular sludge microbial community using light-sheet fluorescence micros

Christof Holliger, Julien Maillard, Arnaud Michel Gelb, Karen Gemayel

One of the aims of wastewater treatment is the removal of phosphorus before the water is discharged into the environment. Since phosphorus concentrations in wastewater exceed the requirement of bacterial growth, biological phosphorus removal is based on th ...

Imaging tissues and cells beyond the diffraction limit with structured illumination microscopy and Bayesian image reconstruction

Tomas Lukes, Jakub Pospisil

Background: Structured illumination microscopy (SIM) is a family of methods in optical fluorescence microscopy that can achieve both optical sectioning and super-resolution effects. SIM is a valuable method for high-resolution imaging of fixed cells or tis ...

GlobalBioIm: A Unifying Computational Framework for Solving Inverse Problems

Michaël Unser, Laurène Donati, Emmanuel Emilien Louis Soubies, Ferréol Arnaud Marie Soulez

We present a unifying framework for the development of state-of-the-art reconstruction algorithms in computational optics with a clear separation between the physical (forward model) and signal-related (regularization, incorporation of prior constraints) a ...
