摘要:
An illumination device for microscopes is detachably connected to the microscope and has at least one unconventional illumination source such as an LED, laser or the like. The microscope has an operating control for adjusting the brightness of the illumination, and the brightness of the unconventional illumination source is adjusted by means of this operating control.

The invention is directed to a high-aperture optical imaging system, particularly for microscopes, which comprises an objective and a tube lens unit and in which the objective has a magnification of less than or equal to 40× and a numerical aperture of greater than or equal to 1.0 and is chromatically corrected up to the infrared.

The present invention is directed to a modular unit for the distribution of the light flow of a cold light source which makes it possible to combine different illumination methods in mixed-light operation with only one individual high-power cold light source and to switch between illumination methods. In the modular unit according to the invention for the distribution of the light flow of a cold light source, the light flows of a cold light source which are distributed to a plurality of cross sections can be manipulated individually, and elements provided for the manipulation of the light are constructed in such a way that an adaptation possibility for different types of light guides is provided at the output of each individual cross section. Any combinations of optical elements for beam shaping, beam splitting and/or beam guiding can be used to distribute the light flow. In an advantageous construction, a light guide having a large input cross section and a plurality of smaller, output cross sections is used to distribute the light flow of the cold light source. The proposed modular unit for the distribution of the light flow of a cold light source is provided for microscope applications in particular but is also suitable for other applications in which different illumination methods are to be realized individually and in combination using only one light source.
