摘要The photoconductive antenna microprobe-based terahertz (THz) near-field scanning microscope has proven to overcome the diffraction limit and demonstrated the potential in distinguishing cellular types and states. Here, using the onion epidermal cells as a sample model, detection of single epithelial cell in the onion skin has been realized at amplitude signal around 1 THz. The boundaries of the target cells in a monolayer onion epidermis are clearly depicted with the spatial resolution of 9 mu m (lambda/33). Differentiated THz dielectric response shows clearly the distinctive intracellular and intercellular regions, mainly related to the hiowater distribution and cellular heterogeneity, which can be used for in situ subcellular identification. This finding may have significant implications for the advancement of THz near-field high-resolution bioimaging technology.
