Abstract

The resolution capability of an optical system can be completely characterized by the vectorial diffraction theory[1], which defines the intensity distribution of a point like source imaged by a lens assuming ideal imaging conditions. Unfortunately, these conditions can not be completely reached as noise affects a recorded microscope image. A detailed characterization of the imaging process in linear and non-linear fluorescence microscopy allows to evaluate the noise deterioration effect on the resolution capability.
