Confocal imaging of single BaTiO3 nanoparticles by two-photon photothermal microscopy

Abstract We report on the development of a nonlinear optical microscopic technique based on two-photon absorption induced photothermal effect capable of detecting individual nonfluorescent nanoparticles with high sensitivity. The method which is inherently confocal makes use of near infrared excitat...
