Abstract

The invention provides a device and method for focusing in a fluorescence microscope. According to the device and method for focusing in the fluorescence microscope, the focusing time can be shortened, the system speed can be increased, and undesired photobleaching can be avoided. According to the fluorescence microscope, part of exciting light is used for forming an image of a sample so that the focal plane of fluorescence imaging can be determined. Due to the fact that the intensity of the part of exciting light is far greater than the intensity of fluorescence, the exposure time for forming a focusing target image is greatly shortened. The fluorescence microscope can conduct prefocusing and multi-path focusing.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a fluorescence microscope, in particular to a focusing device and method for the fluorescence microscope. Background technique [0002] A fluorescence microscope is a type of light microscope that uses fluorescence and phosphorescence to generate images. The samples are illuminated with at least one specific wavelength of light that is absorbed by the fluorescence, causing them to emit light of longer wavelengths. A typical fluorescence microscope includes: a light source such as a mercury arc lamp, excitation filters, dichroic beam splitters, and emission filters. Choose filters and dichroic beamsplitters to match the spectral excitation and emission properties of the fluorophores used to label the specimen. Most fluorescence microscopes in use are epifluorescence microscopes, in which the excitation of the fluorophore and the detection of the fluorescence are performed through the same objective lens. These microscopes are...
