Title:		Spectral Imaging for Vertical Sectioning of Surface Bound Markers
Inventor:		?nl?, M Selim
Summary:		The invention is a new technique in fluorescent imaging. The technique utilizes the spectral oscillations emitted by a fluorophore located a distance of several wavelengths above a reflecting surface. These spectral oscillations are due to the self-interference from the direct and reflected emitted light, analysis of which yields the vertical position of the fluorophore to within a few nanometers corresponding to a resolution that is orders of magnitude better than confocal, two-photon, or other competing microscopes.
