    摘要: A system for delivering exogenous molecules comprises a support for containing cells and exogenous molecules; an infra-red (IR) light source that generates an IR optical beam with an average power density at least greater than 105 W/cm2; one or more optical elements; an imaging system to image the cells in a field of view; a processor that generates a signal for localization of cells in the field of view; a light pattern shaper for temporal focusing of optical beam to generate wide field illumination on the cells to permeabilise the cell membrane for delivering the exogenous molecules; and a controller that switches optical beam from wide field illumination to a focused illumination. The processor is operatively coupled to the imaging system and the light pattern shaper and transmits the signal for the localization of cells to ensure the temporal focusing of the optical beam on the cells.

    摘要: Some systems described herein include a frequency dependent phase plate for generating multiple phase-contrast images of a sample, each from a different frequency range of light, each phase-contrast image for frequency range of light formed from light diffracted by the sample interfered with undiffracted light that has a frequency-dependent baseline relative phase shift from the phase plate. In some embodiments, the multiple phase-contrast images may be used to generate a quantitative phase image of a sample. The phase-contrast images or the produced quantitative phase image may have sufficient contrast for label-free auto-segmentation of cell bodies and nuclei.

    摘要: Lighting system embodiments are provided to energize and calibrate strings of light-emitting diodes. These embodiments are particularly useful for calibration of strings of light-emitting diodes that are arranged to provide backlighting of liquid crystal displays. The systems are structured around the use of a single comparator that is multiplexed to facilitate calibration of a plurality of current sources. The systems can be adapted for use in displays in which different techniques (e.g., “analog dimming” and “pulse-width modulation”) are used to vary the brightness of the display. The systems remove the need for special structures (e.g., fuse arrays, special test equipment, and interfaces).
