Patent ID: 11966036
Assignee: CARL ZEISS MICROSCOPY GMBH
Field: Measurement (Instruments)
Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 0:
1. A light microscope comprising:
a scanner for scanning a sample with illuminating light;
a light detector for measuring sample light;
a microlens array, which comprises a plurality of microlenses and is arranged in the area of a pupil plane;
wherein a plurality of detector elements of the light detector are respectively arranged behind each microlens;
wherein the light detector has a complete readout frequency of at least 100 kHz; and
an electronics unit configured to
measure intensity distributions with the detector elements arranged behind the respective microlenses and derive a wavefront datum regarding the sample light therefrom,
compute a sample point signal from signals of the detector elements,
successively direct illuminating light onto different sample points with the scanner and capture corresponding sample point signals, wherein, for at least some of the different sample points, a corresponding wavefront datum regarding the sample light is determined.
