摘要: A SPIM-microscope (Selective Plane Imaging Microscope) having a y-direction illumination light source and a z-direction detection light camera. An x-scanner generates a sequential light sheet by scanning the illumination light beam in the x-direction. The SPIM-microscope has an illumination optics having a zoom optics provided in a beam path of the illumination light beam, the zoom optics being adapted to change the focal length of the illumination light beam and adapted to detect a larger area of the object by sequentially detecting sequences of images along the y-direction that have an increased resolution along the z-direction. An image processing unit combines these sequences of images by image stitching into one large overall image.

摘要: A dark field metrology device includes an objective lens arrangement and a zeroth order block to block zeroth order radiation. The objective lens arrangement directs illumination onto a specimen to be measured and collects scattered radiation from the specimen, the scattered radiation including zeroth order radiation and higher order diffracted radiation. The dark field metrology device is operable to perform an illumination scan to scan illumination over at least two different subsets of the maximum range of illumination angles; and simultaneously perform a detection scan which scans the zeroth order block and/or the scattered radiation with respect to each other over a corresponding subset of the maximum range of detection angles during at least part of the illumination scan.

摘要: A method for examining a sample in light sheet fluorescence microscopy includes generating an illumination light beam using a light source. The illumination light beam is spatially split into at least two partial illumination light beams using a splitter. The partial illumination light beams are guided through an illumination objective shared by the partial illumination light beams. After the partial illumination light beams have passed through the illumination objective, at least one of the partial illumination light beams is deflected using at least one deflector such that the partial illumination light beams interfere with one another in an illumination plane so as to generate an illumination pattern in the illumination plane. An image of a sample region illuminated by the illumination pattern is produced, wherein detection light that emanates from the sample region reaches a position-sensitive detector through a detection objective.

摘要: A device for recording images is provided, an image-recording device and an illumination device being arranged on the same side of a specimen plane in said device. The image-recording device has illumination portions, for example individual light sources, which are actuatable independently of one another in order to be able to illuminate a specimen in the specimen plane at different angles and/or from different directions. In this way, it is possible to record a plurality of images with different illuminations, which can be combined to form a results image with improved properties.

摘要: A method of imaging through a medium is disclosed. The method comprises: illuminating the medium by a non-diffracting light beam over a plurality of locations on a boundary of the medium; collecting back scattered light for each location of the light beam; and constructing an image based on intensity levels of the back scattered light at each of the plurality of locations, the intensity levels constituting local contrasts over the image.

摘要: A method for determining the size of a void-type defect in a top side of a structure comprising a top layer placed on a substrate, the defect being located in the top layer, includes introducing the structure into a reflected darkfield microscopy device in order to generate, from a light ray scattered by the top side, a defect-related first signal and a roughness-related second signal. The intensity of the roughness-related second signal is captured with a plurality of pixels. The intensity captured by each pixel is compared with the intensities captured by neighboring pixels. It is defined whether or not the pixel is contained in an abnormal zone. The standard deviation of the intensity values captured by the pixels of the abnormal zone is extracted, and the size of the void-type defect associated with the abnormal zone is determined from the extracted standard deviation. A new device may be used for carrying out such a method.
