Abstract: In situ investigation of microbial life in extreme environments can be carried out with microscopes capable of imaging 3-dimensional volumes and tracking particle motion. A lensless digital holographic microscope is disclosed that provides roughly 1.5 micron resolution in a compact, robust package suitable for remote deployment. High resolution is achieved by generating high numerical-aperture input beams with radial gradient-index rod lenses. The ability to detect and track prokaryotes was explored using bacterial strains of two different sizes. In the larger strain, a variety of motions were seen, while the smaller strain was used to demonstrate a detection capability down to micron scales.

Abstract: A digital holographic microscope including a single mode fiber collimated light source which provides illumination for both the ‘science’ and ‘reference’ arms, a pair of microscope objectives located side-by side, and illuminated by the common beam, a relay lens whose center is between the two objectives, and a focal plane element where the interference pattern is measured. A lens-less digital holographic microscope and a reflective digital holographic microscope are also disclosed.

Abstract: A lens-less digital holographic microscope, a reflective digital holographic microscope, and a digital holographic microscope including a plurality of lenses. In one example, the digital holographic microscope includes a single mode fiber collimated light source which provides illumination for both the ‘science’ and ‘reference’ arms, a pair of microscope objectives located side-by side, and illuminated by the common beam, a relay lens whose center is between the two objectives, and a focal plane element where the interference pattern is measured.
