Image formation in conventional brightfield reflection microscopes with optical sectioning property via structured illumination
The work described here the author did in the laboratory of Professor Tony Wilson at the University of Oxford, where the structured illumination microscopy was invented. The theory presented shows and mathematically proves that the structured illumination microscopy, which had initially been developed only for fluorescence mode, can also produce “confocal” images in the bright-field reflection microscopy mode. This work directly lead to the broader scope of use of commercial microscopes Zeiss Apotome and Aurox SD62 and contributed to the Queen’s Award for Enterprise, awarded to Aurox in 2012.
