[2016 Graduation Project 1] 基于数字微阵列的全场 OCT 结构照明系统研制

基于数字微阵列的全场 OCT 结构照明系统研究

课题简介

全场光学相干层析术 (Full-field Optial Coherence Tomography, FF-OCT)是一种非侵入无标记的高分辨生物组织成像技术，它结合低相干光源的白光干涉技术和显微物镜，以及面阵成像相机，对生物组织进行二维层析成像。FF-OCT 的原理与超声成像类似，但超声成像技术通常采用 3-40MHz 左右频率的超声波，通过接收反射回来的「回声」并将其可视化得到分辨率在 0.1-1mm 的图像；FF-OCT 则运用低相干光波，利用单次后向散射光保留光源相干性的特点，通过低相干光光源 的相干门把其他散射光排除在外，从而获得微米量级的生物样品内部信息。结合纵向扫描成像方式，可实现对生物组织三维结构微米量级的层析成像。

结构照明系统通常选择旋转光栅和空间光调制器实现结构照明的实施方案。但采用机械的方式来控制光栅的旋转和位移，其装置复杂，旋转和位移的速度较低，不同激发波长对应 ±1 级衍射角不一样，波长改变时需要调节光路。液晶空间光调制器虽然可以提高产生和控制结构条纹的速度和精度，但只能对偏振光进行调制。因此， 本项目拟采用 DMD 数字微镜阵列产生二值化的条纹，经由显微物镜衍射效应形成正弦化的照明光，这是实现超分辨显微成像的关键技术。
