| 20090279159 | DEVICE FOR CONFOCAL ILLUMINATION OF A SPECIMEN - A device for confocal observation of a specimen, having a mask, which is located in the illumination beam path and the image beam path and is rotatable around a central axis, the mask being provided with openings for generating an illumination pattern moving on the specimen, an arrangement of a plurality of focusing microoptics which is adjusted to the geometric arrangement of the openings of the mask and to the rotation of the mask in order to concentrate the illumination light by each of the microoptics into a respective one of the openings of the mask, and a beam splitter for separating light from the specimen from illumination light, wherein the beam splitter is arranged in the beam path between the mask and the arrangement of the microoptics, and wherein an optical arrangement is provided in the beam path between the mask and the arrangement of the microoptics. | 11-12-2009 |
| 20080218849 | DEVICE FOR CONFOCAL ILLUMINATION OF A SPECIMEN - There is provided a device for confocal observation of a specimen, comprising an objective, a mask, which is located in the illumination beam path and the image beam path and which is rotatable around a central axis, the mask being imaged onto the specimen by means of the objective and being provided with openings for generating an illumination pattern moving on the specimen, an arrangement of a plurality of focussing microoptics which is adjusted to the geometric arrangement of the openings of the mask and to the rotation of the mask in order to concentrate the illumination light by each of the microoptics into a respective one of the openings of the mask, and a beam splitter for separating light from the specimen which has been collected by the objective and which has passed through the openings of the mask from illumination light, wherein the beam splitter is arranged in the beam path between the mask and the arrangement of the microoptics, and wherein an optical arrangement is provided in the beam path between the mask and the arrangement of the microoptics for generating an infinity space in which the beam splitter is located. | 09-11-2008 |
| 20080204766 | METHOD AND MICROSCOPE DEVICE FOR OBSERVING A MOVING SPECIMEN - There is provided a microscope device comprising an objective, a light source for illuminating a specimen via an illumination beam path, an arrangement for continuously moving the specimen during observation in a direction perpendicular to the optical axis of the objective, a two-dimensional detector for detecting light coming from the specimen via an image beam path, said detector being capable of shifting charges during observation in a row-wise manner in the direction of the movement of the specimen on the detector, a beam deflection element which is adjustable for moving the illumination beam path and the image beam path during observation relative to the specimen in the direction of the movement of the specimen, and a control unit for selecting the velocity of the specimen, the adjustment velocity of the beam deflection element and the charge shift velocity in such a manner that the charge shift velocity acts to compensate the movement of a point of the specimen, which point is imaged onto the detector, on the detector. | 08-28-2008 |
