Abstract
We created a highly-tilted light sheet in oblique plane microscopy (OPM) by using a transmission grating such that the angle of illumination does not rely on the numerical aperture (NA) of the primary objective lens. By decoupling the light sheet angle from the NA, MOPM breaks the diffraction-limited resolution in the axial direction imposed by the NA of the primary lens. Centimeter-scale field-of-view and near-isotropic resolutions can be achieved in OPM by utilizing low NA objective lens. Imaging speed of 2 volumes per second (VPS) and 12 VPS has been demonstrated in imaging the neurons and heartbeat in whole zebrafish.
