Light Sheet Microscopy Using Meso-Optical Elements

摘要

The present application relates to devices and methods for generating light sheets and thin light beams with high Rayleigh lengths by using at least two interconnected meso-optical elements.

主权项

1. Optical configuration, suitable for generating a light sheet or light beam, comprising a first lens group (100) which comprises, arranged in a beam direction along an optical axis:
a first meso-optical element (101) and a second meso-optical element (103), wherein the first and second meso-optical element (101, 103) are arranged in such as way that the non-Gaussian beams generated by these elements overlap in such a way that the undesired secondary maxima cancel each other out and only the main maximum remains.
