The application provides a
system and method for double light
path switching of microscopic interference imaging spectrum and bright field imaging. In the microscopic interference imaging spectrum mode, the
fluorescence generated by observing a sample is filtered by a multi-band filter box (CUBE) after passing through an infinite conjugate
microscope objective, and parallel light is incident into a lateral shearing interference module. Two mutually parallel light beams obtained by the lateral shearing interference module pass through a Fourier lens group in an
imaging lens, and an interference image is generated on a surface array camera. By inserting a mirror inside the lateral shearing interference structure, the interference light path is blocked, and the two coherent light beams are converted into single-path reflected light. At the same time, the multi-band filter box is removed from the microscopic light path, and a
white light source is used for illumination, so that the switching from interference imaging to bright field imaging is realized. The double light
path switching mode can share the illumination light path and the imaging light path, effectively utilize the space, and does not affect the
layout and structure of the interference light path, thereby avoiding frequent light path adjustment.
