Abstract

We demonstrate volumetric fluorescence lifetime microscopy (FLIM) using the electro-optic FLIM technique. Images acquired in a selective plane illumination microscope are gated using a Pockels cell driven at 80 MHz, enabling light sheet FLIM acquisition with up to 800 μm field of view. Volume acquisitions are demonstrated on fluorescent bead mixtures and in live Arabidopsis thaliana root samples using both genetically encoded fluorescent proteins and endogenous autofluorescence.
