| Abstract | Fluorescence lifetime imaging methodology has been successfully implemented at Unilever Research in a frequency-domain manner. The experimental rig constructed comprises a wide-bandwidth electrooptic modulator operating on a CW argon-ion laser. The modulated excitation with a typical upper modulation frequency limit of 200 MHz falls on macroscopic samples and the resultant scattered light or fluorescence emission is then imaged onto a custom gain-modulatable image intensifier and slow-scan CCD camera combination. Phase adjustment of the image intensifier relative to the laser modulator is achieved by the RF function generator driving the intensifier. Both homodyne and heterodyne (500-Hz) strobing modes are employed to generate a double image stack (scattered light reference and fluorescence emission) comprising an image sequence as a function of instrumental phase difference. These image stacks are analyzed by Fourier least-squares methods to yield lifetime images by both phase delay and normalized demodulation. Correct operation of the apparatus is deduced from the direct imaging of a quencher-induced lifetime variation of BODIPY disulfonate over a range of concentrations. A typical industrially relevant sample, comprising an investigation of the lifetime aspects of human dental enamel autofluorescence at 50MHz modulation frequency, is given. This shows that there are real emission lifetime decreases of about 0.5 nsec in white-spot lesion areas compared to the surrounding sound enamel. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
