Topic: Design and Implementatio n of a Super-Resolution Dual-Mode Microscope for Intensity and Quantitativ e Phase Imaging Tunable Across Multiple Objective Lenses

Abstrac t: Despite significant advances in optical microscopy\, no single instrume nt currently enables super-resolution imaging of the same sample in both i ntensity and phase modalities simultaneously. This limitation restricts th e comprehensiveness of sample analysis\, as fluorescence-based super-resol ution and quantitative phase imaging (QPI) provide complementary yet disti nct information about specimens under study. Fluorescence super-resolution techniques allow visualization of specifically labeled structures beyond the diffraction limit\, offering high molecular specificity. Quantitative phase imaging\, in contrast\, provides label-free\, nanometer-scale sensit ivity to optical path length variations\, revealing morphological and dyna mical properties of transparent samples without exogenous contrast agents. Integrating both modalities into a unified platform would enable a more c omplete characterization of biological and physical samples.
