STRUCTURAL ILLUMINATION AND EVANESCENT COUPLING FOR THE EXTENSION OF IMAGING INTERFEROMETRIC MICROSCOPY

摘要

In accordance with the invention, there are imaging interferometric microscopes and methods for imaging interferometric microscopy using structural illumination and evanescent coupling for the extension of imaging interferometric microscopy. Furthermore, there are coherent anti-Stokes Raman (CARS) microscopes and methods for coherent anti-Stokes Raman (CARS) microscopy, wherein imaging interferometric microscopy techniques are applied to get material dependent spectroscopic information.
