Patent number: 11921042Abstract: An achromatic 3D STED measuring optical process and optical method, based on a conical diffraction effect or an effect of propagation of light in uniaxial crystals, including a cascade of at least two uniaxial or conical diffraction crystals creating, from a laser source, all of the light propagating along substantially the same optical path, from the output of an optical bank to the objective of a microscope. A spatial position of at least one luminous nano-emitter, structured object or a continuous distribution in a sample is determined. Reconstruction of the sample and its spatial and/or temporal and/or spectral properties is treated as an inverse Bayesian problem leading to the definition of an a posteriori distribution, and a posteriori relationship combining, by virtue of the Bayes law, the probabilistic formulation of a noise model, and possible priors on a distribution of light created in the sample by projection.Type: GrantFiled: February 16, 2021Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: Bioaxial SASInventors: Gabriel Y Sirat, Lionel Moisan

Publication number: 20240062562Abstract: Methods for determining a value of an intrinsic geometrical parameter of a geometrical feature characterizing a physical object, and for classifying a scene into at least one geometrical shape, each geometrical shape modeling a luminous object. A singular light distribution characterized by a first wavelength and a position of singularity is projected onto the physical object. Light excited by the singular light distribution that has interacted with the geometrical feature and that impinges upon a detector is detected and a return energy distribution is identified and quantified at one or more positions. A deep learning or neural network layer may be employed, using the detected light as direct input of the neural network layer, adapted to classify the scene, as a plurality of shapes, static or dynamic, the shapes being part of a set of shapes predetermined or acquired by learning.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 27, 2023Publication date: February 22, 2024Inventor: Gabriel Y Sirat

Publication number: 20230168199Abstract: A super resolution technique, intended mainly for fluorescence microscopy, acquires the three-dimensional position of an emitter, through a hybrid method, including a number of steps. In a first step the two-dimensional position of an emitter is acquired, using a technique, named in this application as an Abbe’s loophole technique., In this technique a doughnut, or a combination of distributions, having a zero intensity at the combined center of the distributions, is projected onto the sample containing the emitter, under conditions wherein the doughnut null is moved towards the emitter to reach a position in which the emitter does not emit light. In a second step, an axial measurement is obtained using a 3D shaping method, characterized by the fact that the emitted light is shaped by an additional optical module creating a shape of the light emitted by the emitter, this shape being dependent of the axial position and means to retrieve the axial position from the shape.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 27, 2023Publication date: June 1, 2023Inventor: Gabriel Y.
