摘要：
A multiphoton microscope based on two-photon excited fluorescence and second-harmonic generation that images FOVs of about 0.8 mm2 (without stitching adjacent FOVs) at speeds of 10 frames/second (800×800 pixels) with lateral and axial resolutions of 0.5 μm and 2.5 μm, respectively. The scan head of the instrument includes a fast galvanometric scanner, relay optics, a beam expander and a high NA objective lens. The system is based on a 25×, 1.05 NA water immersion lens, which features a long working distance of 1 mm. A proper tailoring of the beam expander, which consists of the scan and tube lens elements, enables scaling of the FOV. The system and method also include a flat wavefront of the beam, minimum field curvature, and suppressed spherical aberrations. All aberrations in focus are below the Marechal criterion of 0.07λ rms for diffraction-limited performance.
