摘要
Tracking moving particles in cells by single particle tracking is an important optical approach widely used in biological research.In order to track multiple particles within a whole cell simultaneously,a parallel tracking approach with large depth of field was put forward.It was based on distorted grating and dual-objective bifocal imaging,making use of the distorted grating to expand the depth of field,dual-objective to gather as many photons as possible,and bifocal plane imaging to realize three-dimensional localization.Simulation of parallel tracking of two particles moving along the z axis demonstrated that even when the two are axially separated by10μm,they can both be localized simultaneously with transversal precision better than 5 nm and axial precision better than 20 nm.
