Abstract
Photoluminescence lifetime imaging of upconverting nanoparticles is increasingly featured in recent progress in optical thermometry. Despite remarkable advances in photoluminescent temperature indicators, existing optical instruments lack the ability of wide-field photoluminescence lifetime imaging in real time, thus falling short in dynamic temperature mapping. Here, we have developed single-shot photoluminescence lifetime imaging thermometry (SPLIT), which is developed from a compressed-sensing ultrahigh-speed imaging paradigm. Using the core/shell NaGdF<sub>4</sub>:Er<sup>3+</sup>,Yb<sup>3+</sup>/NaGdF<sub>4</sub> upconverting nanoparticles as the lifetime-based temperature indicators, we apply SPLIT in longitudinal wide-field temperature monitoring beneath a thin scattering medium. SPLIT also enables video-rate temperature mapping of a moving biological sample at single-cell resolution.
