Light Acquisition02:16

Light Acquisition

In order to produce glucose, plants need to capture sufficient light energy. Many modern plants have evolved leaves specialized for light acquisition. Leaves can be only millimeters in width or tens of meters wide, depending on the environment. Due to competition for sunlight, evolution has driven the evolution of increasingly larger leaves and taller plants, to avoid shading by their neighbors with contaminant elaboration of root architecture and mechanisms to transport water and nutrients.
Confocal Fluorescence Microscopy01:16

Confocal Fluorescence Microscopy

Confocal microscopy is an advanced microscopic technique. The prime advantage of the confocal microscope over other microscopy techniques is its ability to block the out-of-focus light from the illuminated samples using pinholes. It is widely used with fluorescence optics to obtain high-resolution, sharp contrast images. Unlike optical microscopes, confocal microscopes use a focused beam of light laser to scan the entire sample surface at different z-planes. These microscopes are, therefore,...

Phase Contrast and Differential Interference Contrast Microscopy

Phase-Contrast Microscopes
In-phase-contrast microscopes, interference between light directly passing through a cell and light refracted by cellular components is used to create high-contrast, high-resolution images without staining. It is the oldest and simplest type of microscope that creates an image by altering the wavelengths of light rays passing through the specimen. Altered wavelength paths are created using an annular stop in the condenser. The annular stop produces a hollow cone of...

Area of Science:

  • Fluid dynamics
  • Optical measurement techniques

Background:

  • Accurate measurement of planar velocity fields is crucial for understanding fluid flow phenomena.
  • Traditional methods often require complex setups or multiple cameras for multi-plane measurements.

  • To develop and validate a single-camera system for simultaneous planar velocity field measurements.
  • To apply this system to analyze convective flow within a defined volume.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing an in-house manufactured light-field camera with a doublet lens array.
  • Employing synthetic-aperture particle image velocimetry (SAPIV) for particle position reconstruction.
  • Defining measurement planes using spaced light sheets and reconstructing particle positions from single 2D recordings.

Main Results:

  • Successfully reconstructed particle positions from single 2D recordings using a fast refocusing algorithm.
  • Validated reconstruction quality through ray-tracing of synthetic particle fields.
  • Applied the single-camera SAPIV system to a convective flow in a 30 x 30 x 50 mm³ volume.

Conclusions:

  • The developed single-camera SAPIV system provides a viable method for simultaneous multi-plane velocity field measurements.
