Abstract

MINFLUX offers a breakthrough in single molecule localization precision, but is limited in field of view. Here we combine centroid estimation and illumination pattern induced photon count variations in a conventional widefield imaging setup to extract position information over a typical micrometer-sized field of view. We show a near two-fold improvement in precision over standard localization with the same photon count on DNA-origami nanostructures and tubulin in cells, using DNA-PAINT and STORM imaging.
