- Abstract
The resolution of conventional optical microscopy is restricted by the diffraction limit. Light waves containing higher-frequency information about the sample are bound to the sample surface and cannot be collected by far-field optical microscopy. To break the resolution limit, researchers have proposed various far-field super-resolution (SR) microscopy imaging methods using evanescent waves to transfer the high-frequency information of samples to the low-frequency passband of optical microscopy. Optimization algorithms are developed to reconstruct a SR image of the sample by utilizing the high-frequency information. These techniques can be collectively referred to as spatial-frequency-shift (SFS) SR microscopy. This review aims to summarize the basic principle of SR microscopy using evanescent illumination and introduce the advances in this research area. Some current challenges and possible directions are also discussed.
