Abstract

We performed Second Harmonic Microscopy of axonemes obtained from sea urchin sperm. Using polarization analysis and a trade-off between signal and photodamage, we were able to determine, for the first time to our knowledge, the nonlinear susceptibility χzxx /χxzx = 1.1 ± 0.2 and χzzz /χxzx = 4± 0.5 of axonemes.
