Field of view advantage of conjugate adaptive optics in microscopy applications.
The imaging performance of an optical microscope can be degraded by sample-induced aberrations. A general strategy to undo the effect of these aberrations is to apply wavefront correction with a deformable mirror (DM). In most cases the DM is placed conjugate to the microscope pupil, called pupil adaptive optics (AO). When the aberrations are spatially variant an alternative configuration invol...
متن کاملAxial range of conjugate adaptive optics in two-photon microscopy.
We describe an adaptive optics technique for two-photon microscopy in which the deformable mirror used for aberration compensation is positioned in a plane conjugate to the plane of the aberration. We demonstrate in a proof-of-principle experiment that this technique yields a large field of view advantage in comparison to standard pupil-conjugate adaptive optics. Further, we show that the exten...
متن کاملAdaptive optics in microscopy.
The imaging properties of optical microscopes are often compromised by aberrations that reduce image resolution and contrast. Adaptive optics technology has been employed in various systems to correct these aberrations and restore performance. This has required various departures from the traditional adaptive optics schemes that are used in astronomy. This review discusses the sources of aberra...
متن کاملGround-Conjugate Wide Field Adaptive Optics for the ELTs
Ground-conjugate wide eld AO is presented and preliminary performance results are given, which show that signi cant seeing improvement can be achieved over 10-20 arcmin eld of view. A proposal for an ELT AO system is sketched.
متن کاملAdaptive optics photoacoustic microscopy
We have developed an adaptive optics photoacoustic microscope (AO-PAM) for high-resolution imaging of biological tissues, especially the retina. To demonstrate the feasibility of AO-PAM we first designed the AO system to correct the wavefront errors of the illuminating light of PAM. The aberrations of the optical system delivering the illuminating light to the sample in PAM was corrected with a...
