Abstract

The invention provides a fluorescent bleaching-based super-resolution imaging method. The fluorescent bleaching-based super-resolution imaging method comprises the following steps of 1) marking a sample through fluorescent dye with photo-bleaching characteristics; 2) focusing laser beams onto the marked sample to be tested through a point excitation scanning type laser microscope, wherein the sample to be tested emits fluorescence under laser beam excitation; 3) collecting the fluorescence emitted by the sample to be tested to acquire laser intensity information; 4) scanning the sample point by point through exciting light of certain power at certain scanning parameters so as to directly bleach the sample during the scanning process, to relatively reduce the number of collected effective pixels, to further obtain relatively small fluorescence spots and to directly achieve super-resolution images breaking through optical diffraction limits.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of super-resolution far-field optical imaging that breaks through the optical diffraction limit, and more specifically relates to a super-resolution imaging method based on fluorescence bleaching. Background technique [0002] Optical microscopes can non-destructively observe and image biological samples in real time, and are essential tools in biological research. The development of optical microscopes also promotes the progress of life sciences. The organelles and proteins in the cell are all at the nanoscale, which requires the resolution of the microscope to reach the nanoscale to be able to distinguish them clearly. However, due to the existence of optical diffraction, the lateral resolution of the optical microscope is limited to about 200nm, which hinders people from using the optical microscope to conduct more in-depth research. [0003] In the last two decades, a series of super-resolution microscopes have ...
