Abstract
The microscope is an essential tool in many areas of scientific research. In this video, ULRIKE FUCHS explains how the latest developments in laser technology can significantly improve microscopy. * Focusing on fluorescence microscopy, Fuchs demonstrates the advantages of using a laser with a “top hat” shaped beam distribution in place of the standard Gaussian beam distribution. * Delivering striking improvements in areas including photo bleaching and high throughput stitching, the research also has important implications for common and stimulated emission depletion (STED) microscopy.
