Volumetric stimulated Raman imaging with a high-speed deformable mirror (Conference Presentation)

High resolution volumetric stimulated Raman scattering (V-SRS) imaging allows a precise measurement of chemical distribution in a three-dimensional (3-D) complex biological system. To compile a stack of multiplane images, current methods such as using piezo objective positioners or tunable lenses either yield low scanning speed, disturbance of specimen, or significant aberrations. Here, we develop a V-SRS microscope with a high-speed MEMS...
