    Area of Science:

    • Optical microscopy
    • Nanotechnology
    • Biophysics

    Background:

    • Single molecule localization microscopy (SMLM) resolution relies on localization accuracy.
    • Engineered point spread functions (PSFs) improve accuracy but are affected by detector pixelation.
    • The impact of pixelation on 3D localization accuracy for various PSFs and noise levels remains understudied.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a framework for characterizing 3D localization accuracy of pixelated PSFs.
    • To evaluate the influence of sampling rates and pixelation on different PSF shapes.
    • To determine optimal pixel sizes for maximizing 3D localization performance.

    Main Methods:

    • Proposed a computational framework to simulate and analyze PSF pixelation effects.
    • Evaluated four distinct PSF designs: astigmatic, double helix (DH), Tetrapod, and 4Pi.
    • Investigated performance across varying signal-to-background ratios (SBR) and pixel-dependent readout noise.

    Main Results:

    • Quantified the degradation of 3D localization accuracy due to pixelation for each PSF.
    • Identified specific sampling rates and pixel sizes that yield optimal localization performance for each PSF type.
    • Demonstrated that the optimal sampling rate is dependent on PSF shape and imaging conditions.

    Conclusions:

    • Detector pixelation significantly affects 3D localization accuracy in SMLM.
    • The choice of PSF shape and sampling rate critically influences achievable resolution.
    • This work provides a theoretical basis for optimizing sampling strategies in 3D super-resolution microscopy.
