Abstract. Fourier ptychographic microscopy (FPM) is a recently developed technique stitching low-resolution images in Fourier domain to realize wide-field high-resolution imaging. However, the time-consuming process of image acquisition greatly narrows its applications in dynamic imaging. We report a wavelength multiplexing strategy to speed up the acquisition process of FPM several folds. A proof-of-concept system is built to verify its feasibility. Distinguished from many current multiplexing methods in Fourier domain, we explore the potential of high-speed FPM in spectral domain. Compatible with most existing FPM methods, our strategy provides an approach to high-speed gigapixel microscopy. Several experimental results are also presented to validate the strategy.
