Retrofit kit for microscopes, especially light sheet microscopes or confocal microscopes and microscopes

摘要

The invention relates to an optical retro for microscope (1), in particular light sheet microscope (2) or confocal microscope (3), and microscope (1), in particular light sheet microscope (2) or confocal microscope (3). It relates to a fit kit (150). In this case, an irradiation optical system (5) is provided, which emits light of at least two wavelengths (27a, 27b) from at least one light source (11), respectively, beam paths (23a, 23b) depending on the wavelength. ) From the irradiation side (29) of the irradiation optical system (5) to the sample side (83) of the irradiation optical system (5). The microscope (1) according to the prior art has longitudinal chromatic aberration (37a) and / or lateral chromatic aberration (37b), which reduces the imaging quality of the microscope (1). The microscope (1) or the optical retrofit kit (150) according to the present invention solves this problem by the following. That is, the microscope (1) or the optical retrofit kit (150) includes a lateral chromatic aberration correction device (65) including at least one optical lateral chromatic aberration correction element (67), and the lateral chromatic aberration correction element (67). At the sample side outlet (84), the beam paths (23a, 23b) of at least two different wavelengths (27a, 27b) have offsets (43) parallel to each other and / or on the irradiation side (29). As a result, at the sample side (83) of the irradiation optical system (5), at least two wavelengths (27a, 27b) in the direction crossing the optical axis (41) of the irradiation optical system (5). An offset (43) of the focal point (31a, 31b) occurs.
