Super-resolution microscopy methods and systems enhanced by dielectric microspheres or microcylinders used in combination with metallic nanostructures

Methods and systems for the super-resolution imaging can make visible strongly subwavelength feature sizes (even below 100 nm) in the optical images of biomedical or any nanoscale structures. The main application of the proposed methods and systems is related to label-free imaging where biological or other objects are not stained with fluorescent dye molecules or with fluorophores. This label-free microscopy is more challenging as compared to fluorescent microscopy because of the poor optical contrast of images of objects with subwavelength dimensions. However, these methods and systems are also applicable to fluorescent imaging. Their use is extremely simple, and it is based on application of the microspheres or microcylinders or, alternatively, elastomeric slabs with embedded microspheres or microcylinders to the objects which are deposited on the surfaces covered with thin metallic layers or metallic nanostructures. The mechanism of imaging involved use of the plasmonic near-fields for illuminating the objects and virtual imaging of these objects through microspheres or microcylinders. These methods and systems do not require use of fragile probe tips and slow point-by-point scanning techniques. These methods and systems can be used in conjunction with any types of microscopes including upright, inverted, fluorescence, confocal, phase-contrast, total internal reflection and others. Scanning the samples can be performed using micromanipulation with individual spheres or cylinders or using translation of the slabs. These methods and systems are applicable to dry, wet and totally liquid-immersed samples and structures.
