Applying pulsed excitation together with time-gated detection improves the fluorescence on-off contrast in continuous-wave stimulated emission depletion (CW-STED) microscopy, thus revealing finer details in fixed and living cells using moderate light intensities. This method also enables super-resolution fluorescence correlation spectroscopy with CW-STED beams, as demonstrated by quantifying the dynamics of labeled lipid molecules in the plasma membrane of living cells.
应用脉冲激发并结合时间门控检测可提高连续波受激发射损耗(CW-STED)显微镜中的荧光关-开对比度,从而在使用中等光强的情况下在固定和活细胞中揭示更精细的细节。该方法还可实现使用 CW-STED 光束的超分辨率荧光相关光谱学,如通过量化活细胞的质膜中标记脂质分子的动力学来证明。
