Single-shot structured illumination microscopy
Structured illumination microscopy (SIM) can double the resolution beyond the light diffraction limit, but it comes at the cost of multiple camera exposures and the heavy computation burden of multiple Fourier transforms. In this paper, we report a novel technique termed single-shot SIM, to overcome these limitations. A multi-task joint deep-learning strategy is proposed. Generative adversative networks (GAN) are employed to generate five structured illumination images based on the single-shot structured illumination image. U-Net is employed to reconstruct the super-resolution image from these six generated images without time-consuming Fourier transform. By imaging a self-assembling DNB array, we experimentally verified that this technique could perform single-shot super-resolution reconstruction comparing favorably with conventional SIM. This single-shot SIM technique may ultimately overcome the limitations of multiple exposures and Fourier transforms and is potentially applied for high-throughput gene sequencing.
