Confocal Microscopy
General Information
- Confocal Principle
The document shows a simplified beam path and the basic compounds of an inverted Confocal Laser Scanning Microscope (CLSM).
- Effect of the confocal pinhole
This movie shows a volume representation of fluorescent beads, based on a confocal image stack. During the movie, the diameter of the confocal pinhole changes from fully open to 1 Airy Unit. One can see the contrast enhancement in X-Y direction as well as the change in the point spread function, once the pinhole is closed.
The beads were acquired with a Leica TCS SP5 and processed with Improvision Volocity Visualization.
