Total Internal Reflection Fluorescence (TIRF) Microscope
• Total Internal Reflection– Oil to Air : Critical Angle = 41 degree– Oil to Water : Critical Angle = 61 degree– Oil to Glycerol : Critical Angle = 78.5 degree

TIRF Microscope
• Total Internal Reflection and Evanescent light– Refractive Index of Sample need to be smaller than objective lens immersion
• Optics– Using edge of NA to get TIR angle– Move spot at back focal of
objective lens to control TIR angle and illumination depth

TIRF Microscope: Summary
• Using evanescent light coming out from Total Internal reflection to illuminate fluorescence dye
• Product:All major microscope company has TIRFM• Advantage
– Illuminate only 100nm from cover-glass surface.– Z Resolution is better than confocal microscope (500nm)
– Less cell damage because of limited excitation area– Less Background – High sensitive imaging.
• Disadvantage– Imaging area is limited to cover glass surface.

PALM/STORM
• PALM : Photoactivated Localization Microscope• fPALM : Fluorescence Photoactivation Localization Microscope• STORM : Stochastic Optical Reconstruction Microscope• dSTORM : Direct STORM• Use localization of single fluorophore to break diffraction limit.
PALM/STORM
• Precision of localization of each dye is much better - ~20nm - than optical resolution - ~200nm.

Optical Resolution
Position Detection Precision
• Activate one dye at a time and measure dye position by PSF, you can separate two dyes which distance is less than optical resolution.
• Need to image single molecule fast to increase performance.- Require to use ~200mW laser- Use TIRFM to increase signal detection efficiency
Localization Sequence
Activation Method : PALM

Dronpa
Activation Method : STORM
• Combine two fluorophores to control activation
Cy3-Cy5 Combination STORM Imaging Sequence
STORM Dye Combinations
Activation : dSTORM
• Dye in Triplet state react with thiolate and form the radical anion of fluorophore F* which has several second life time.
• F* can be oxidized and recover singlet state to emit fluorescence again.

PALM, STORM, dSTORM: Summary (1)
• Using Photo activated dye to get nano-meter spatial resolution.• Using TIRF or Near TIRF angle illumination to reduce background to
increase detection efficiency.• Product: Zeiss, Nikon, Leica• Advantage
– Can get very high spatial resolution (~10-20nm) in 2D.– Can get high Z resolution (~60nm)– System will be cheaper than other high resolution product – half or less.– dSTORM technique allow to use existing Fluorophores.
• Disadvantage:– Long Exposure to get image (15-30min)– Computation is required – not direct imaging.

Structured Illumination Microscope• Use Moiré pattern effect to detect sub diffraction limit object
– Maximum illumination pattern frequency (Fi) is determined by NA Fimax = F0
– Detectable Moiré pattern frequency (Fd) is also determined by NA Fdmax = F0
– Moiré pattern frequency Fd = Fs – Fi (Fs is sample image frequency)
– Fs = Fi + Fd = 2F0 : Maximum detectable sample frequency is 2F0
– Structured Illumination improved resolution 2 times ~100nm

Optical Tweezers
(a) The larger momentum change of the more intense rays cause a net force to be applied back toward the center of the trap.
(b) When the bead is laterally centered on the beam, the net force points toward the beam waist.
Optical Tweezers: Optics
• IR laser is commonly used for not interfering with observation wavelength. CW Nd:YAG Laser (1064nm) is common for this application.
• Expand laser beam to fill back focal of objective lens to use entire NA
• Dichroic mirrors to separate observation light and laser.
• Position Detector to detect beads displacement .
