Journal ArticleDOI

Light-sheet microscopy using an Airy beam

TL;DR: It is shown that the Airy beam innately yields high contrast and resolution up to a tenfold larger FOV, and its characteristic asymmetric excitation pattern results in all fluorescence contributing positively to the contrast, enabling a step change for light-sheet microscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI

A compact Airy beam light sheet microscope with a tilted cylindrical lens

TL;DR: This work presents a straightforward and low-cost modification to the traditional light-sheet setup, based on the open-access light- Sheet microscope OpenSPIM, to achieve Airy light-sheets illumination, which brings wide field single-photon light- sheet imaging to a broader range of endusers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Light-sheet microscopy with attenuation-compensated propagation-invariant beams.

TL;DR: In this article, attenuation-compensation of the light field has been proposed to increase the depth penetration of light-sheet microscopy by tailoring an exponential intensity increase along the illuminating propagation-invariant field to maximize signal and minimize irradiation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multimode fibre: Light-sheet microscopy at the tip of a needle

TL;DR: This new technique, based on digital holography, enables delivery of the light-sheet through a multimode optical fibre – an optical element with extremely small footprint, yet permitting complex control of light transport processes within.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enhancement of image quality and imaging depth with Airy light-sheet microscopy in cleared and non-cleared neural tissue.

TL;DR: The effect of Airy illumination on the image quality and depth penetration of digitally scanned light-sheet microscopy in turbid neural tissue is investigated and it is found that the improvement when using an Airy light-sheets is greater in the presence of stronger sample-induced aberrations.
