OS1-2-3 Experimental Study on the Laser Scanning Confocal Microscopy Moire Method

Abstract

Laser scanning confocal microscopy (LSCM) has been extensively used for image capturing and analysis in the field of bio-engineering as an advanced scientific instrument. It can achieve high spatial resolution (the horizontal resolution is about 0.2μm), and obtain extremely high-quality images from test specimens. By integrating LSCM and the existing scanning moire technique, a novel class of moire method, i.e., LSCM moire method is studied by experiments in this paper. The principle and condition of forming LSCM moire are described concisely. As application, the method is used to measure the local deformation of poly-crystal aluminum alloy plate and characterize the planar periodic structure of butterfly wing..
