Abstract
We design and implement a novel imaging technique that integrates bimodal phase and 3D fluorescence capabilities through aperture segmentation. This approach involves capturing four distinct fluorescence images, mirroring the principles of the Fourier light field microscope and the multi-view reflector microscope, enabling accurate 3D sample reconstruction. Additionally, four brightfield images are acquired for quantitative phase and amplitude reconstruction based on the Kramers-Kronig relations. By combining the strengths of phase imaging, such as digital refocusing, extended depth of field, and non-invasiveness, with the specificity of fluorescence imaging, this method offers a unique imaging solution. Imaging maize roots highlights its exceptional depth of field extension, while imaging a mixture of bacterial cells with and without fluorescent protein tags demonstrates its unique bimodal capabilities.
