Laser scanning confocal microscopy is am optical
technique that provides the opportunity for three-dimensional,
high-resolution, non-destructive imaging of a whole range of samples ranging
from biological cells to semiconductor devices. Our laboratories are
equipped with several commercial and self-built setups tailored for
different applications. In addition to the conventional LSCM we are
developing also more advanced method such as two photon laser scanning
microscopy, second harmonic generation microscopy, fluorescence life
time imaging, etc. Some recent examples are shown below:
