Application of LCoS to dynamical focusing in an optical system

Imaging of samples by different microscopy techniques has produced a relevant impact in the development of new diagnosis techniques in biology, medicine and material science. In many biological, applications, where the sample changes or moves during the observation, a moving spot to track an identif...

description Imaging of samples by different microscopy techniques has produced a relevant impact in the development of new diagnosis techniques in biology, medicine and material science.
