Abstract
An epi-cone shell light-sheet super-resolution system and an epi-fluorescence microscope are provided. The epi-cone shell light-sheet super-resolution system includes a light-emitting element, a lens set, and an objective lens. After passing through the lens set, the excitation light emitted by the light-emitting element is refracted into ring-shaped light and focused on the objective-lens back-focal plane. The objective lens focuses the ring-shaped light to form a ring-shaped light cone which is then focused on the sample position. The ring-shaped light cone has a fixed thickness. In addition, the same objective lens is used for both excitation and imaging, thus achieving an epi-fluorescence microscope.
