In their contribution "Third-harmonic generation microscopy in highly scattering media" [Appl. Opt. 39, 5187 (2000)], C. M. Blanca and C. Saloma apply the Monte Carlo technique to the calculation of third-harmonic generation (THG) in strongly scattering samples. In that study the authors fail to appreciate the coherent nature of both the signal-generation and the image-formation process, inherent to THG microscopy. Here we wish to clarify several points.
在他们的论文《高散射介质中的三次谐波产生显微镜》[《应用光学》39, 5187 (2000)]中,C. M. 布兰卡和C. 萨洛马将蒙特卡罗技术应用于强散射样品中三次谐波产生(THG)的计算。在该研究中,作者未能认识到THG显微镜固有的信号产生和图像形成过程的相干性质。在此我们希望澄清几点。
