Abstract :
We introduce two new devices, the correlation confocal and twin-photon microscopes. Like the standard two photon confocal microscope, they use spatially-correlated photon pairs to improve lateral resolution, but with the correlation enforced in different manners. Ocis codes: (180.1790) Confocal microscopy; (180.5810) Scanning microscopy; (190.4970) Parametric oscillators and amplifiers.
