Topic: Confocal laser scanning microscope


  
 Microscope - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Optical theory microscopes are microscopes which function through the optical theory of lenses in order to magnify the image generated by the passage of a wave through the sample.
Optical microscopes, through their use of visible wavelengths of light, are the simplest and hence most widely used type of microscope.
In scanning probe microscopy (SPM), a physical probe is used either in close contact to the sample or nearly touching it.

As laser scanning confocal microscopy is a scanning imaging technique the way the resolution is obtained might be best explained by comparing it with another scanning technique like Scanning electron microscope (SEM).
Not to be confused with Phonograph, AFM or STM, where the image is obtained by scanning with an atomic tip over a conducting surface, while associating a discrete tunnel current with each area element of the surface.
In a laser scanning confocal microscope a laser beam passes a light source aperture and then is focused by an objective lens into a small (ideally diffraction-limited) focal volume within a fluorescent specimen.
