Many lay cell biologists use confocal imaging to refer to anything from a simple digital recording of a single focal plane to a full three-dimensional data By fluorescence LM, 1 mean use of a compound light (optical) microscope equipped for epifluo-... 

Figure 5 Schematic sketch of an optical reflectometry system. The activated-carbon chimney is perforated to admit the optical fiber (or laser beam directly when used in interferometry mode). The detector used in reflectometry is a photodiode coupled to a high-impedance pre-amplifier, the signal from which is passed through the A/D converter to the digital recorder.

It gives range of information regarding distribution of particles, arrangements of atoms, size, shape, etc. laser beam is made to fall on the nanosuspensions so that on the spot visualization of nanoparticles can be done by optical microscope. The analyzer is often supplemented with digital recorder and multiple software applications to track the path of nanoparticles. The results are usually matched and combined with the information obtained from other relative techniques. 

The nonreactive base structures of cyanine dyes (or carbocyanines) have been used for many years as components in photographic emulsions to increase the range and sensitivity of film and also in CD-R and DVD-R optical disks to record digital information. A major innovation came when Ernst et al. (1989) and Waggoner et al. (1993) recognized that cyanine dyes would make excellent labels for fluorescence detection, and for this reason, they synthesized reactive dye derivatives, which then could be covalently attached to proteins and other molecules.
