Lyncee Tec SA

Lyncee Tec SA combines for the first time in microscopy nanometric resolution, real time and non-invasive 3D observations in a revolutionary technology called "Digital Holographic Microscopy" (DHM™). The characteristics of DHM™ instruments make out of it a unique solution for following the whole development cycle of a product, from innovative R&D to quality control in production line, passing through the quantitative optimization of the manufacturing process.

DHM™ technique makes use of a video (CCD) camera to record a hologram produced by the interference between a reference wave and a wave emanating from the specimen. The captured image is transmitted to a computer where numerical procedures are applied to reconstruct a 3D image of the specimen. This process is called "image reconstruction". The innovation of the DHM™ patented technology is the intervention of digital processing at a level that had not been reached so far in microscopy.

Significant results have been obtained in microscopy where we have established that this new concept enables fast 3D imaging of microscopic specimen with a high resolution (nanometer scale in the vertical direction), with an easy to use, flexible and cost effective technology. Complete description of the method is given in the reviewed paper by E. Cuche et. al.: "Simultaneous amplitude-contrast and quantitative phase-contrast microscopy by numerical reconstruction of Fresnel off-axis holograms"
