Abstract
We report the development of a novel confocal line-scanning microscope capable of acquiring video-frame rate TCSPC-based FLIM. The system consists of a one-dimensional laser beam, which is optically conjugated to a 1024×16 single photon avalanche diode(SPAD) based line-imaging CMOS(1), with 23.78 μm pixel pitch at 49.31% fill factor. Incorporation of on-chip histogramming on the line-sensor facilitates the acquisition of up to 16.5 Giga-photon counts/s, enabling operation 66 times faster than our previously reported bespoke high speed FLIM platforms. We will demonstrate its use in live-cell imaging investigating the roles that PAK proteins play in regulation of cytoskeletal dynamics.
