Abstract
We demonstrate 3-photon fluorescence micro-endoscopy using a negative curvature hollow core fiber and a 2.2 mm miniature scanning head. The fiber design allows distortion-less, delivery of <100 fs pulses without dispersion pre-compensation requirements. The fiber also features a double cladding allowing the back-collection of nonlinear signals through the same fiber. Sub-micron spatial resolution together with large field of view is made possible by the combination of a miniature distal objective lens with a functionnalization of the fiber output with a GRIN fiber spliced to the output facet. 3-photon fluoresence imaging is demonstrated on various biological samples.
