AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This technology uses an optically active material called Liquid Crystals (LC) that can change its molecular orientation when exposed to specific types or directions of electromagnetic radiation. By introducing this special type of LC with different orientations at one end of the device, two images may be captured simultaneously without any distortion caused during exposure time. These techniques have improved accuracy compared to traditional lasers used for creating 3D models due to their ability to capture fine detail accurately over large areas quickly while also reducing errors associated with other processes involved.

Problems solved by technology

This patented technical problem addressed by this patents relates to how to enhance laserscence microscopy (LSCM) images with higher spatial accuracy than current techniques like electron beam lithography or X ray fluorescent analysis.

Abstract

The invention provides a high-resolution differential confocal imaging system and method based on tangential polarized light. A liquid crystal spatial light modulator and a tangential polarization converter are introduced into a laser spot scanning confocal imaging illumination light path, tangential polarized light is introduced into the illumination light path through the tangential polarizationconverter, firstly, a uniform phase is introduced into the liquid crystal spatial light modulator, primary confocal imaging is carried out, and a first image is obtained; by introducing a 0-2pi spiral phase on the liquid crystal spatial light modulator and performing confocal imaging again, a second image is obtained, a high-resolution differential confocal image based on the tangential polarizedlight can be obtained according to the first image and the second image, and the spot size of the point spread function of the high-resolution differential confocal image based on the tangential polarized light is remarkably smaller than that of a point spread function during conventional laser scanning confocal microscopic imaging, so that the high-resolution differential confocal image has highimaging resolution, and the defects of artifacts and the like caused by an image processing method are avoided.
