Title: | Microsphere-aided Optical Microscopy and its Applications for Super-Resolution Imaging | Authors: | Upputuri, Paul Kumar Pramanik, Manojit |

Issue Date: | 2017 | Source: | Upputuri, P. K., & Pramanik, M. (2017). Microsphere-aided optical microscopy and its applications for super-resolution imaging. Optics Communications, in press. | Series/Report no.: | Optics Communications | Abstract: | The spatial resolution of a standard optical microscope (SOM) is limited by diffraction. In visible spectrum, SOM can provide ∼200nm resolution. To break the diffraction limit several approaches were developed including scanning near field microscopy, metamaterial super-lenses, nanoscale solid immersion lenses, super-oscillatory lenses, confocal fluorescence microscopy, techniques that exploit non-linear response of fluorophores like stimulated emission depletion microscopy, stochastic optical reconstruction microscopy, etc. Recently, photonic nanojet generated by a dielectric microsphere was used to break the diffraction limit. The microsphere-approach is simple, cost-effective and can be implemented under a standard microscope, hence it has gained enormous attention for super-resolution imaging. In this article, we briefly review the microsphere approach and its applications for super-resolution imaging in various optical imaging modalities. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/84064 http://hdl.handle.net/10220/42920 |
