Nanoscopy enables breaking down the light diffraction limit and reveals the nanostructures of objects being studied using light. In 2014, three scientists pioneered the development of nanoscopy and won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry. This recognized the achievement of the past twenty years in the field of nanoscopy. However, fluorescent probes used in the field of nanoscopy are still numbered. Here, we review the currently available four categories of probes and existing methods to improve the performance of probes.
纳米显微镜能够突破光衍射极限,并揭示使用光来研究的物体的纳米结构。2014年,三位科学家率先开发了纳米显微镜,并获得了诺贝尔化学奖。这认可了纳米显微镜领域过去二十年的成就。然而,纳米显微镜领域中使用的荧光探针数量仍然有限。在此,我们综述了目前可用的四类探针以及提高探针性能的现有方法。
