How do you represent a frequency domain?
Frequency Domain Analysis of Linear Systems
- x(t)=Aincos(ω0t+φin). (
- y(t)=Aoutcos(ω0t+φout). (
- x(t)=Acos(ωt+φ). (
Why is frequency spectrum mirrored?
Often when a signal is mixed down from a higher frequency, the spectrum is flipped or mirrored about the center frequency as a result of the mixing scheme used. A mirrored spectrum occurs when both the mixer input frequency and the mixer output frequency are lower than the mixer LO frequency.
Why is FFT plot mirrored?
The reason for the mirroring is because I use an FFT on real numbers (real FFT). The normal FFT as everyone knows works on complex numbers. Hence the imaginary part is “set” to 0 in the real FFT, resulting in a mirroring around the middle (or technically speaking the mirroring is around 0 and N/2).
How is the excitation light in the frequency domain?
Frequency Domain. The excitation light is modulated or pulsed in intensity at a certain radio frequency (the blue curve in the figure below). The induced fluorescence emission will mirror this modulation pattern and show, due to the fluorescence decay, a delay in time in the form of a phase-shift (the red curve).
Which is a time domain and frequency domain microscope?
Camera-based lifetime detection on widefield, multi-beam confocal and total internal reflection fluorescence (TIRF) microscopes operate both in time domain and frequency domain. The Lambert Instruments LIFA for example is a fast frequency-domain system, whereas the Lambert Instruments TRiCAM can be operated both in the frequency and time domains.
Can a flim be performed in the frequency domain?
Fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) can be performed in the time domain and in the frequency domain. Scanning single point lifetime detection units on confocal laser scanning microscopes mainly operate in the time domain.
How does fluorescence decay in frequency domain FLIM?
The induced fluorescence emission will mirror this modulation pattern and show, due to the fluorescence decay, a delay in time in the form of a phase-shift (the red curve). In addition, the modulation depth will decrease with respect to the excitation light, while the average intensity remains the same.
