The Applications of Two-photon Confocal Microscopy and Micro-spectroscopy¡GSHG imaging of Teeth and KTP

In this study, we have developed a high performance
multi-photon microscopic system to perform second-
harmonic (SH) imaging on a tooth and a KTP crystal
. The high sensitivity of the system allows
acquisition rate of 300 seconds/frame with
resolution at 512¡Ñ512 pixels. The surface SH
signal generated from the tooth and the KTP
crystal is also carefully verified through
micro-spectroscopy, polarization rotation and
wavelength tuning. In this way, we can ensure the
authenticity of the signal. KTP crystal and the
enamel that encapsulates the dentine is known to
possess highly ordered structures. The anisotropy
of the structure is revealed in the microscopic
SH images of the tooth and the KTP crystal samples.
