Agenda
• Why tunable lenses for microscopy? • Integration of tunable lenses • Application examples • Conclusion
3
Starting point Today, most microscopes take 2D images, but …
…Life is 3-dimensional !!
4
Starting point Modern biology wants • Imaging of 3D cell cultures • Imaging of whole embryos • In-vivo imaging in living animals Issue: • Microscopes have a limited “depth of field” (DOF) • The higher the lateral resolution, the smaller the DOF Solution: • 3D microscope
5
3D microscopy techniques
Wide-field microscopy
Two-photon microscopy 3
Confocal microscopy
Light-sheet microscopy
Need to scan along z-axis Solutions: Motorized stages Slow bulky
Piezo-stages small travel expensive
Focus tunable lenses Fast Compact accurate
7
USP for 3D microscopy • Fast (> 100 Hz), compact and accurate 3D scanning
• >100x Faster than motorized solutions
• >3x cheaper than piezo stages
• Larger z-range than with piezo stages (up to 600 µm with 40x objective)

Image plane without EL
Telecentric autofocus configuration: tunable lens EL with a relay system CCD with • By inserting a relay system, composed of two lenses (a 4f-system), the back focal plane (BFP) of the objective can be reimaged to an accessible location • When the EL is placed at that position, the system stays telecentric while focusing

Design with 2 achromats + EL suffers from reduced MTF at the edge
Field curvature can’t be eliminated with the two achromats => limiting MTF quality. 25

Two-photon in-vivo imaging of retinal microstructures
Optical sectioning in mouse 2P fluorescence angiography. A. Two-photon images of the optic disc. The microscope objective lens and mouse were held in place, and each image was acquired at different ETL currents (10mA interval between successive images; each image is an average over 30 frames acquired at 1 fps). Arrowheads point to blood vessels visible in only a few images, but not in others. B. Images of blood vessels outside the optic disc, acquired at different scan zooms (average over 100 and 200 frames; different animal than A). The FOV of the lower image is marked by a white box. Scale bars = 50 µm.

Light sheet microscopy • Goal: Optimize with help of tunable lenses the illumination light-sheet to the requirement at hand. • A telescope composed of two electrically tuneable lenses enable to define thickness and position of the light-sheet independently but accurately within milliseconds, and therefore optimize image quality of the features of interest interactively. • This technique proved compatible with confocal line scanning detection, further improving image contrast.

3D High- and super-resolution imaging using single-objective SPIM • Single-objective selective-plane illumination microscopy (soSPIM) is achieved with micromirrored cavities combined with a laser beam–steering unit installed on a standard inverted microscope. • Based on custom EL-C-10-30 focus-tunable lens (TL) from −80 mm to +1,000 mm.
