摘要
A nonscanning picosecond fluorescence Kerr gate microscope has been developed. By applying the optical Kerr gate technique to the fluorescence imaging of microscopic samples, picosecond time-resolved fluorescence images were obtained with 1.4-ps time resolutions and 1-mu m space resolutions, without XY scanning of the sample or the excitation light. A demonstrational measurement on an organic microcrystal, perylene, is presented. (C) 2005 American Institute of Physics.
