In this paper we report stimulated emission depletion (STED) and two-photon excitation (2PE) fluorescence microscopy with continuous wave (CW) laser beam using a new generation laser scanning confocal microscope equipped for STED-CW (TCS STED-CW, Leica Microsystems, Mannheim, Germany). We show the possibility to achieve CW-2PE with the very same beam used for STED-CW. This feature extends the performance of the microscope allowing multimodal imaging (CW-2PE, STED-CW, confocal). © 2011 The Authors Journal of Microscopy © 2011 Royal Microscopical Society.

Abstract
In this paper we report stimulated emission depletion (STED) and two-photon excitation (2PE) fluorescence microscopy with continuous wave (CW) laser beam using a new generation laser scanning confocal microscope equipped for STED-CW (TCS STED-CW, Leica Microsystems, Mannheim, Germany). We show the possibility to achieve CW-2PE with the very same beam used for STED-CW. This feature extends the performance of the microscope allowing multimodal imaging (CW-2PE, STED-CW, confocal). © 2011 The Authors Journal of Microscopy © 2011 Royal Microscopical Society.
