Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging ( FLIM ) in Confocal Microscopy Applications : An Overview

During the last two decades, the use of fluorescence in natural sciences has propelled a number of research fields, ranging from biological sciences and applications in the clinical sector (FISH for genetic testing, advanced sequencing technology) to environmental monitoring. In addition, the resulting technological developments have become important in several fields of materials sciences, for example in characterization of new materials or quality control of semiconductor materials.
