Optical coherence correlation spectroscopy (OCCS)

Marcel Leutenegger, Theo Lasser, Stéphane Broillet, Stefan Geissbühler, Christophe Pache, Arno Pino Bouwens, Akihiro Sato

We present a new method called optical coherence correlation spectroscopy (OCCS) using nanoparticles as reporters of kinetic processes at the single particle level. OCCS is a spectral interferometry based method, thus giving simultaneous access to several ...

Structural and Functional Stochastic Super-Resolution Microscopy

Stefan Geissbühler

Super-resolution fluorescence microscopy is a promising tool with the potential to strengthen our understanding of living processes. Based on the ability to switch fluorophores on and off in an either deterministic or stochastic manner, the fundamental lim ...

Comparison between SOFI and STORM

Theo Lasser, Claudio Dellagiacoma, Stefan Geissbühler

A straightforward method to achieve super-resolution consists of taking an image sequence of stochastically blinking emitters using a standard wide-field fluorescence microscope. Densely packed single molecules can be distinguished sequentially in time usi ...

Targeted Photoswitchable Probe for Nanoscopy of Biological Structures

Iwan Märki, Theo Lasser, Kai Johnsson, Claudio Dellagiacoma, Stefan Geissbühler, Sambashiva Banala, Grazvydas Lukinavicius, Noelia Laura Bocchio

We introduce a photoswitchable O6-benzylguanine derivative and demonstrate its use for super-resolution microscopy of SNAP-tagged proteins based on single fluorophore localization. Stochastic Optical Reconstruction Microscopy (STORM) reveals SNAP-tagged mi ...

Three-dimensional nano-localization of single fluorescent emitters

Iwan Märki, Theo Lasser, François Aguet, Stefan Geissbühler, Noelia Laura Bocchio

We present a combination of self-interference microscopy with lateral super-resolution microscopy and introduce a novel approach for localizing a single nano-emitter to within a few nanometers in all three dimensions over a large axial range. We demonstrat ...

Super-resolved position and orientation estimation of fluorescent dipoles using 3-D steerable filters

Iwan Märki, Theo Lasser, François Aguet, Stefan Geissbühler

The diffraction patterns of fixed fluorophores are characteristic of the orientation of the molecules' underlying dipole. Fluorescence localization microscopy techniques such as PALM and STORM achieve super-resolution by sequentially imaging sparse subsets ...

Steerable filters for orientation estimation and localization of fluorescent dipoles

Iwan Märki, Michaël Unser, Theo Lasser, François Aguet, Stefan Geissbühler

Fluorescence localization microscopy (i.e., PALM, STORM) has enabled optical imaging at nanometer-scale resolutions. The localization algorithms used in these techniques rely on fitting a 2-D Gaussian to the in-focus image of individual fluorophores. For f ...

Super-resolution orientation estimation and localization of fluorescent dipoles using 3-D steerable filters

Iwan Märki, Michaël Unser, Theo Lasser, François Aguet, Stefan Geissbühler

Fluorophores that are fixed during image acquisition produce a diffraction pattern that is characteristic of the orientation of the fluorophore’s underlying dipole. Fluorescence localization microscopy techniques such as PALM and STORM achieve super-resolu ...
