Ambiguity edit

Latest comment: 8 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

The term Multi-photon microscopy is sometimes colloquially used for Two-photon excitation microscopy, also in combination with Second harmonic imaging microscopy. However, this use is not precise, and the term is nowadays also found when referring to Three-photon excitation microscopy (eg. Horton et al.^[1]) and Coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy. Furthermore, the original publication by Denk et al.^[2] did talk exclusively about "two-photon fluorescence microscopy". Since all those techniques are multi-photon. I propose to shortly clarify this ambiguity on this page, linking to the relevant other pages that are named with the precise terms. Donik (talk) 11:08, 23 April 2016 (UTC)Reply
