Abstract
The present invention relates to fluorescence imaging. In order to enhance compatibility with multiple fluorescence channels for calibrating a fluorescence microscope, a calibration slide is provided that comprises a substrate and a pixel layout. The pixel layout comprises a plurality of spaced apart metal nanostructures arranged on a surface of the substrate. The metal nanostructures are arranged to produce plasmon resonances that allow absorbing light at an excitation wavelength to produce photo-luminescence and/or fluorescence light for generating a fluorescent image. The fluorescent image comprises a plurality of pixel intensity values that are provided for calibration of a fluorescence microscope.
