Description

Polarized light excites the formation method of micro-associating super-resolution rebuilding
Technical field
The present invention relates to the light activated fluorescence microscopy method of a kind of polarization and device, especially can carry out to observation thing high-resolution imaging method and the device of super-resolution rebuilding, belong to optical imagery and signal process field.
Background technology
In many digital imagery applications, high-resolution image or video are processed and analyzed for image is all in demand.This needs mainly play an important role aspect two: one is to improve or strengthen the understanding of the mankind for image information; Another contributes to machine automatic sensing and expression exactly.The resolution of image has been described the details comprising in image, and resolution is higher, and details is also just abundanter.The resolution of digital picture can be classified according to many different modes, as: pixel resolution, spatial resolution, spectral resolution, temporal resolution and radiometric resolution.Here we interested be mainly spatial resolution.
In recent years, nano grade biological was learned observational study and was developed rapidly, had objectively excited high-resolution imaging research further to stride forward to molecular scale.Wherein, fluorescence microscopy has become the important tool of biological study, relies on fluorescent microscope can observe biomolecule, path and the activity in living cells, tissue and animal body.Compared with other imaging technique such as electron microscope technique, the main advantage of fluorescence microscopy is the compatibility with living cells, can realize dynamic and minimal invasive imaging experiment.Confocal microscopy and wide field (WF) microscopy is the most widely used fluorescence imaging method, can tell some organelle (for example: nucleus, endoplasmic reticulum and golgiosome) in living cells and follow the trail of protein and other biomolecule.But for many years, all there is a limit space resolution in above-mentioned fluorescence imaging method always.According to the diffraction theory of Abbe, conventional fluorescent micro-imaging cannot be gone beyond the distance lower than 200 nanometers, so just can not differentiate single cynapse bubble and interaction protein pair.In fact, many fields of biological study can both from improve empty time combine resolution and benefit.For example, synapse bubble size 40 nanometers of only having an appointment, the time scale that its signal occurs be millisecond.Bacterium size only has 1-5 micron, and traditional fluorescence microscopy is to be difficult to differentiate its subcellular fraction feature.
The demand and limitation just, forces people to study constantly fluorescence microscopy method in recent years, with the transverse diffraction limit breaking traditions.Many new far field Imaging-PAMs continue to bring out, and these revolutionary limit that broken through in theory spatial resolution of creating, are called as super-resolution imaging technology.At present, aspect super-resolution fluorescent microscopic imaging, ground state loss (GSD) microscopy, saturated structures illumination microscopy (SSIM), stimulated emission loss (STED) microscopy, photoactivation location microscopy (PALM), random optics reconstruction microscopy (STORM) and Near field scanning optical microscopy (NSOM) etc. are there are.The flourish progress at full speed that has directly driven life science of super-resolution fluorescence microscopy.
In many super-resolution fluorescence microscopies, STED microscopy is with the obvious advantage in biological specimen experiment.STED is first far field super-resolution rate imaging technique for cell imaging, and it uses spatial modulation and saturated transition to reach the object of breaking diffraction limit between two molecular staties.Be exactly that a branch of is excitation laser pulse with two bundle Ear Mucosa Treated by He Ne Laser Irradiation samples specifically, another bundle following closely is that a kind of red shift pulse is called STED bundle.The fluorescence excitation group that is exposed to STED bundle almost returns to the ground state of self at once by the mode of stimulated emission.This by STED restraint the fluorescence state causing non-linear (almost index) go swash be the basis of breaking STED imaging diffraction limit.Although two laser pulses are all diffraction limited, STED pulse is modulated into zero intensity point and the high intensity points (being also focused to the aperture of donut-like) that distributes in the periphery of this point in focusing center.If two pulses center superposition, only has the molecule of close STED bundle zero center to fluoresce so, so just fluorescence excitation is limited in to zero center minimum scope around.This mode that effectively narrows point spread function (PSF) has finally surmounted diffraction limit and has strengthened resolution.
Having many modes can further dwindle zero center fluorescence scope, is wherein the mode generally adopting by polarisation of light effect fluorescence excitation group.Main polarization form comprises linear polarization, circular polarization, radial polarisation etc., and every kind of polarization has its relative merits and the scope of application.Have recently that the novel tangential polarization optical excitation of bibliographical information is micro-has a low-power consumption feature, can protect biological specimen to avoid infringement, therefore receive publicity.Although the STED microtechnic based on tangential polarization light can obtain good micro-effect, need the precision optics components and parts of complicated light path, costliness as guarantee but will realize this effect, the nanometer translation stage for example with accurate translation yardstick, high cost has limited the popularization of this technology; The stability requirement of whole system is simultaneously very high, even if instrument accurately also needs to calibrate frequently, for example, will make scanning position accurately locate, and this has also increased the complexity of operation undoubtedly.In a word, for the STED microtechnic of tangential polarization light, its realization condition is comparatively harsh.
In order to overcome the limitation that polarized light is micro-exposed, need to design one in the time reducing above-mentioned harsh conditions, also can obtain the method for satisfied high-definition picture.In fact,, except super-resolution optical imaging technology, also have a kind of super-resolution rebuilding treatment technology to be also widely studied in digital image processing field.This technology does not rely on optical hardware equipment, is a kind of method that exchanges spatial resolution with the time for, can first utilize comparatively cheap device to carry out low-resolution sequence imaging, then uses signal processing algorithm that sequence image is redeveloped into high-definition picture.The super-resolution rebuilding technology of having reported is broadly divided into following a few class: frequency domain method, convex set projection method, interpolation-restoring method, statistic law and based on example-based approach.A large amount of document analysises can find out, utilizes maximum a posteriori (MAP) model in statistic law can add the priori of image, has more strict mathematical reasoning, and therefore the degree of confidence of reconstructed results is higher.Moreover, MAP super-resolution rebuilding for noise, registration error and time become PSF and all there is stronger processing power, this also may for effectively simplifying that transformation polarized light microsurgical instrument provides.
More than research shows, the STED microtechnic based on tangential polarization light and the super-resolution rebuilding treatment technology based on MAP are combined, can be on the basis of lowering apparatus cost, the difficulty that simplifies the operation the fine high-resolution imaging of realizing on nanoscale.Here, the super-resolution rebuilding based on MAP also can be further improved according to the micro-feature of STED.
The external super-resolution technique research of recent year aspect, fast development is Liang great branch: super-resolution optical imaging and super-resolution rebuilding processing.Two branches improve the resolution of image from different perspectives, have obtained great successes.But super-resolution optical imaging technology and super-resolution rebuilding treatment technology are combined, utilize the nano level hardware imaging capability of super-resolution optical imaging technology, utilize super-resolution rebuilding treatment technology processing with low cost feature flexibly, thereby realize high-resolution imaging, have no up to now report.
