Here, we present a new combined microscopy platform based on fluorescence optical sectioning microscopy through aperture correlation microscopy with a Differential Spinning Disk (DSD) and nanomechanical mapping with an Atomic Force Microscope (AFM). The illumination scheme of the DSD microscope unit, contrary to standard single or multi-point confocal microscopes, provides a time-independent illumination of the AFM cantilever. This enables a distortion-free simultaneous operation of fluorescence optical sectioning microscopy and atomic force microscopy with standard probes. In this context, we discuss sample heating due to AFM cantilever illumination with fluorescence excitation light. Integration of a DSD fluorescence optical sectioning unit with an AFM platform requires mitigation of mechanical noise transfer of the spinning disk. We identify and present two solutions to almost annul this noise in the AFM measurement process. The new combined microscopy platform is applied to the characterization of a DOPC\/DOPS (4:1) lipid structures labelled with a lipophilic cationic indocarbocyanine dye deposited on a mica substrate.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1063\/1.4931064","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,9,19]],"date-time":"2015-09-19T17:25:27Z","timestamp":1442683527000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1063\/aip-crossmark-policy-page","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Simultaneous differential spinning disk fluorescence optical sectioning microscopy and nanomechanical mapping atomic force microscopy"],"prefix":"10.1063","volume":"86","author":[{"given":"Adelaide","family":"Miranda","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"International Iberian Nanotechnology Laboratory 1 Applied Nano-Optics Laboratory, , Avenida Mestre Jos\u00e9 Veiga, s\/n, 4715-330 Braga, Portugal"}]},{"given":"Marco","family":"Martins","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"International Iberian Nanotechnology Laboratory 2 Nano-ICs Group, , Avenida Mestre Jos\u00e9 Veiga, s\/n, 4715-330 Braga, Portugal"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4060-3968","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Pieter A.
