Problems solved by technology

Generally speaking, the above-mentioned new confocal microscope and super-resolution technology have improved the resolution characteristics of the confocal microscope and solved the needs of many confocal microscope super-resolution microscopic imaging measurements, but they still have the following problems: First, the existing Various forms of confocal microscopes use the detected light intensity signal to directly perform imaging processing, which is easily affected by factors such as light intensity fluctuations, background light interference, and environmental temperature drift. The signal-to-noise ratio of the confocal microscope imaging system is low; The axial tomographic accuracy of the confocal microscope is limited by the nonlinearity of the axial intensity response curve, and the existing super-resolution technology tends to cause the increase of the side lobe and the increase of the nonlinear error of the axial response curve during the super-resolution imaging process
However, the three-differential confocal microscopy imaging method is mainly used to improve the axial resolution of the confocal microscope, and does not improve the lateral resolution. When the existing super-resolution pupil filter is used for three-dimensional super-resolution measurement of the confocal microscope, both It is necessary to perform horizontal super-resolution and also take into account axial super-resolution. The effect of three-dimensional super-resolution is usually not particularly significant.

Embodiment Construction

[0033] The technical principle of the present invention is: adopting three-differential confocal microscopy imaging technology to arrange the confocal microscope receiving optical path into three-way detection optical paths of far focus, focal plane and near focus, and the three-way intensity with different phases detected by the three-way detection system The pairwise differential subtraction of response signals achieves the purpose of improving the axial resolution and improving the anti-interference ability; in addition, by increasing the proportion of high-frequency light in the laser beam irradiation system, the three-differential confocal microscopy system Airy spot The lobe becomes smaller, so as to improve the spatial resolution of the confocal microscopy system, and merge the lateral super-resolution characteristics of the shaped ring light with the axial high-resolution characteristics of the differential confocal microscopy technology, so as to achieve a high-quality-to...
