摘要：Optical microscope is one of the most widely used imaging tools for its great flexibility, reliable design, and low cost. Optical microsphere nanoscope (OMN) is invented as a method that can greatly enhance the observation power of conventional optical microscopes. In this perspective, the promising outlook for this approach is briefly discussed. There exists a great freedom to apply this method in various applications. OMN has been successfully commercialized. Our past experience and strategies are summarized in this perspective, which serves as a good reference for the future technology entrepreneurs. Based on our story and model, the factors for success are listed. It can be used to evaluate other commercialization projects and find out the directions that require further improvement.Optical Imaging; Photonics; Nanotechnology
