Three-dimensional focal spots related to two-photon excitation
Abstract
We used a photopolymer consisting of urethane acrylate monomer and free-radical-type initiators as a media for recording two-photon-excited (TPE) focal spots in three dimensions. Mathematically, the initiator plays a role of “k ” operator, transforming the quadratic light intensity distribution to a linear radical concentration distribution. Then, the monomer acts as a three-dimensional (3D) “film,” fixing the focal volume where radical concentration is above a threshold as a voxel. An ascending scan method was utilized to avoid substrate truncation and to achieve isolated complete 3D voxels, from which accurate forms of TPE focus were obtained. The 3D photographing technology led to a clear explanation of the origin of pronounced contradictions in reported spatial resolutions, and would be critical for laser precision microfabrication in various materials.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
