Through a parallel presentation of diverse developments in optical imaging, this volume is intended for optical researchers and engineers, graduate students and optical microscopists in the biological and biomedical sciences. The contributions emphasize common themes, such as optical data storage and imaging. The book consists of three parts: a discussion high-aperture optical systems, which form the backbone of optical microscopes; the use of non-linear optical techniques, including non-linear optical excitation (second and third harmonic generation and two-photon microscopy) and non-linear spectroscopy (CARS); and, finally, techniques that are either novel or well known but finding new applications, such as adaptive optics. Already used widely in astronomy, adative optics is being applied to eye surgery in combination with high-power pulsed lasers.
