Left, theoretical xy and xz PSFs (top, intensity γ = 0.5; scale bar, 1 μm) and OTFs (bottom, log-scale; scale bar, 2 μm -1 ) for the multi-Bessel (MB) light sheet with excitation NA 0.43 and annulus NA 0.40–0.47. Blue represents theoretical support; orange and yellow indicate theoretical maximum (orange) and experimental (yellow) envelopes for the WB method; magenta indicates experimental envelope for the OMW method. Right, illustration of deconvolution of a simulated stripe pattern. The raw and deconvolved images with traditional, WB and OMW methods are displayed along with their line cuts. The orange lines indicate the theoretical line locations, and the blue curves give the actual intensities along the line cuts.
