Simulation of STED microscopy
This application note demonstrates how our modeling software SimphoSOFT® allows a user to model and optimize the performance of STED using the SimphoSOFT features of multiple beams and stimulated emission. SimphoSOFT can be used
- to help design STED microscopes, and
- to optimize the performance of fluorescent probes used in STED microscopy.
