Abstract

Abstract : Magnetic field could increase dye's fluorescence intensity and number of photons, thus better localization precision of super-resolution imaging was achieved. Abstract : A novel strategy for modulating the photophysics of organic dyes in super-resolution fluorescence imaging using an external magnetic field was reported. The magnetic field induced increase in fluorescence intensity, localization number of probe molecules, and the number of photons emitted per molecule as compared to those acquired without a magnetic field were experimentally confirmed. Improved dSTORM localization precision and imaging resolution were consequently achieved.
