Problems solved by technology

However, in the existing focus locking system, the detection signal and the feedback signal must be reflected by the dichroic mirror and magnified by the objective lens, so this design requires high coaxiality of the optical path, and poor coaxiality will lead to detection The feedback signal cannot be collected by the controller, which increases the difficulty of system installation and adjustment

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of microscopes, and discloses a microscopic imaging focus locking system and method, and a microscope, and the system comprises a light source, a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, a detector, and an objective lens displacement controller. The light source irradiates the glass slide to form reflected light which sequentially passes through the first lens, the second lens and the third lens, the first lens and the second lens are used for amplifying offset, and the third lens is used for converging reflected light beams to the detector arranged at a first angle. The detector is used for comparing the first position of a first light spot formed by the reflected light beam with the initial position of a pre-stored initial light spot, and sending a first control signal to the objective lens displacement controller according to the first position and the second position. The device has the beneficial effects that the dependence and influence on a microscopic imaging system can be neglected when the focus locking is carried out by a focus locking system in which incident light enters without an objective lens; the device number of the focus locking system is small, the mechanism is simplified, the processing, assembling and adjusting difficulty is reduced, and the modular system is easier to realize.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of microscopes, in particular to a microscopic imaging focus-locking system, method and microscope. Background technique [0002] Due to the vibration in the environment and the influence of temperature, when doing microscopic imaging, the sample will inevitably be affected by various factors in the environment, and the axial deviation will occur, which will cause the sample surface to be out of focus. , the greater the impact of focal plane deviation. Therefore, it is necessary to add a focus locking system to the microscope. [0003] The existing automatic focus locking technology generally uses the position of the light spot formed on the photodetector by the reflected light on the glass slide to calculate the compensation distance of the objective lens. However, in the existing focus-locking system, the detection signal and the feedback signal are both reflected by the dichroic mirror and amplified by ...
