    Abstract: A method is useable for digitally correcting an optical image of a sample by a microscope that has a cover slip covering the sample. The method includes: determining, by the microscope, an index of refraction of an optical medium bordering the cover slip, a tilt of the cover slip, and/or a thickness of the cover slip; ascertaining an imaging error to be corrected in the form of a pupil function based on the index of refraction of the optical medium, the tilt of the cover slip, and/or the thickness of the cover slip; carrying out imaging of the sample by the microscope; and digitally correcting image data captured by the imaging of the sample based on the pupil function.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus provide identification of a spherical error of a microscope imaging beam path in a context of microscopic imaging of a sample using a microscope having an objective. A coverslip that carries or covers the sample is arranged in the imaging beam path. A measurement beam is guided through the objective onto the sample in a decentered fashion that is outside an optical axis of the objective. The measurement beam is reflected at an interface of the coverslip with the sample and the reflected measurement beam is guided through the objective onto a detector. An intensity profile of the reflected measurement beam is detected with the detector and a presence of a spherical error from the intensity profile is determined qualitatively and/or quantitatively.

    Abstract: An optical scanning microscope includes an illumination system having a light source portion emanating from a light source, first and second polarizing beam splitters, and first and second optical channels disposed between the beam splitters. The light source portion is configured to emit a first illumination light beam comprising light of a first main polarization direction and of a second main polarization direction. The first beam splitter is configured to guide the light primarily into the first and channels, respectively. The second beam splitter is configured to form a second illumination light beam from light of the first and second main polarization directions from the first channel and second channels, respectively. The first and second channels are configured to emit the light of the first and second main polarization directions from the first and second channels, respectively, so as to have different types of convergence.

    Abstract: A method for autofocusing in microscopic examination of a specimen located at the focus of a microscope objective uses an autofocus beam path, the autofocus beam path being directed, via a deflection device arranged on the side of the microscope objective facing away from the specimen, toward the microscope objective, and from there onto a reflective autofocus interface in the specimen region. The autofocus beam path is reflected at the autofocus interface and directed via the microscope objective and the deflection device toward an autofocus detector. The deflection device comprises two regions spaced apart from one another in a propagation direction of the autofocus beam path. Each region reflects the autofocus beam path. The autofocus detector is arranged in a plane conjugated with the microscope objective pupil to acquire an interference pattern. The focus of the microscope is adjusted as a function of the acquired interference pattern.
