Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a high throughput optical scanning device and methods of use. The optical scanning device and methods of use provided herein can allow high throughput scanning of a continuously moving object with a high resolution despite fluctuations in stage velocity. This can aid in high throughput scanning of a substrate, such as a biological chip comprising fluorophores. Also provided herein are improved optical relay systems and scanning optics.

Claim (Index 29):
A method of imaging a plurality of fields on a moving substrate, comprising\n a. providing an optical scanning system comprising:\n i. a moveable stage holding a substrate comprising a plurality of fields, \n ii. a camera, \n iii. an objective lens, \n iv. a velocity tracking mirror, and \n v. an acceleration tracking mirror; \n b. moving said moveable stage along an axis, thereby moving said substrate comprising a plurality of fields along said axis; and c. concurrent with said movement, capturing an image of one of said plurality of fields passing through said objective lens using said camera, wherein said image of said field is stabilized during said image capture by:\n i. rotating said velocity tracking mirror as a function of a velocity of the moveable stage along said axis, and \n ii. rotating said acceleration tracking mirror as a function of a change in the velocity of the moveable stage along said axis.
