In three sections, this book discusses high-aperture optical systems, nonlinear optical techniques, and various techniques that are finding new applications. The new second edition has been thoroughly revised and expanded to account for new advances in fluorescence imaging and diffractive optical lenses. This text on contemporary optical systems is intended for optical researchers and engineers, graduate students and optical microscopists in the biological and biomedical sciences. It represents a unique compilation of valuable and novel scientific work that is scarcely to be found elsewhere. The contributing authors are acknowledged leaders of their respective fields.
