Abstract
© 2020 The Author(s) Understanding the mechanical properties of biological cells is a challenging problem for the life sciences partly because there are limited methods for mapping elasticity with high resolution. Phonon microscopy is a form of Brillouin light scattering which uses coherent phonons for imaging with elasticity-related contrast, phonon resolution and without labels. It can measure material properties such as sound velocity, acoustic impedance and attenuation. To use it as a contrast mechanism in microscopy, high numerical aperture (NA) lenses are key to high resolution. However, increasing NA induces apparent attenuation, a premature decay of the detected signal. To reduce signal decay and quantify the sound attenuation coefficient in cells, it is necessary to understand the mechanisms that affect signal decay. Here we define opto-acoustic defocus as a signal decay mechanism and propose methods to achieve quantitative sound attenuation measurements, and to optimise in-depth imaging at high resolution which is crucial for cell imaging.
