| 20090134342 | High spatial resolution imaging of a structure of interest in a specimen - For the high spatial resolution imaging of a structure of interest in a specimen, a substance is selected from a group of substances which have a fluorescent first state and a nonfluorescent second state; which can be converted fractionally from their first state into their second state by light which excites them into fluorescence, and which return from their second state into their first state; the specimen's structure of interest is imaged onto a sensor array, a spatial resolution limit of the imaging being greater (i.e. worse) than an average spacing between closest neighboring molecules of the substance in the specimen; the specimen is exposed to light in a region which has dimensions larger than the spatial resolution limit, fractions of the substance alternately being excited by the light to emit fluorescent light and converted into their second state, and at least 10% of the molecules of the substance that are respectively in the first state lying at a distance from their closest neighboring molecules in the first state which is greater than the spatial resolution limit; and the fluorescent light, which is spontaneously emitted by the substance from the region, is registered in a plurality of images recorded by the sensor array during continued exposure of the specimen to the light. | 05-28-2009 |
| 20090242801 | METHOD OF FLUORESCENCE-MICROSCOPICALLY IMAGING A STRUCTURE IN A SAMPLE WITH HIGH THREE-DIMENSIONAL SPATIAL RESOLUTION - For imaging a structure in a sample with three-dimensional spatial resolution, a fluorophore is selected which is transferable by means of an optical transfer signal out of a first into a second photochromic state having specific fluorescence properties, and which displays a return rate back into the first photochromic state. The structure is labeled with the fluorophore. Via a common objective, the sample with the labeled structure is subjected both to the optical transfer signal in a spatially limited transfer-volume, and to an optical excitation signal exciting a portion of the fluorophore being in its second photochromic state for fluorescence in a spatially limited excitation-volume, the transfer-volume and the excitation-volume having a common centre of maximum intensity of the transfer signal and of the excitation signal, and a decrease of intensity of the transfer signal with the distance to the common centre of maximum intensity being substantially stronger than any decrease of the effective return rate of the fluorophore. Fluorescence light emitted by the excited fluorophore is detected. The common centre of maximum intensity is shifted with regard to the sample; and the steps of subjecting and detecting are repeated. | 10-01-2009 |

| 20100187438 | Fluorescent Light Microscope For Measuring a Sample Using Red-Shifted Stokes Lines - A fluorescent light microscope for measuring a sample comprises a light source providing transfer light having a transfer wavelength for transferring a fluorescent dye in the sample from one state into another state, and a detector which measures fluorescent light from the sample with spatial resolution. The light source comprises a laser, an optical wave guide connected to the laser, and a wavelength-selective device connected to the optical wave guide. The laser emits pump light of a pump wavelength other than the transfer wavelength and injects the pump light into the optical wave guide. The pump light, due to Raman scattering being stimulated in the optical wave guide, generates a light spectrum emerging from the optical wave guide which has, besides the pump wavelength, at least one red-shifted Stokes line whose full width at half maximum is smaller than half of its distance to its next neighbor line on the blue side of the spectrum; and the wavelength-selective device singles out the transfer light by its transfer wavelength from the red-shifted Stokes lines of the light spectrum. | 07-29-2010 |

The specimen is imaged onto a sensor at a spatial resolution not resolving an average spacing between neighboring molecules of the substance, and exposed to the light at such an intensity that the molecules in the first state are alternately excited to emit fluorescent light and converted into their second state, and that at least 10% of the molecules presently in their first state lie at a distance from their closest neighboring molecules in their first state which is greater than the spatial resolution of the imaging onto the sensor. | 04-07-2011 |
