Abstract: A method for wavelength-resolving and high spatial resolution fluorescence microscopy in which fluorescence labels in a sample are repeatedly excited to emit fluorescence radiation and frames including images of isolated labels are produced with a microscope. The positions of the images of the isolated fluorescing labels are localized with a localization precision exceeding the optical resolution of the imaging beam path of the microscope. The imaging beam path of the microscope has a diffractive element which, during the imaging, diffracts the image of the sample comprising the isolated fluorescing labels into a first diffraction order so that each frame contains the first diffraction order images of the isolated fluorescing labels. A parameter of the first diffraction order images of the isolated fluorescing labels is evaluated and an indication of the wavelength of the isolated fluorescing labels is derived from this evaluated parameter.

Abstract: For achieving balance between manufacturing effort and spectrometer accuracy, a spectral decomposition device is not completely integrated into a substrate stack, but, for example, after manufacturing the substrate stack in the manufacturing process, the opportunity of compensating inaccuracies in substrate stack manufacturing is given by mounting a component with a suitable optical functional element to a window, like, e.g., an entry, exit or intermediate window of the substrate stack, to at least partially cover the respective window, wherein the optical functional element is, for example, an entry aperture, an exit aperture or also part of an optics or an optical element having a spectrally decomposing effect. The substrate stack may be manufactured on wafer level and the manufacturing tolerances in this manufacturing may be loosened, as the subsequent substrate stack-individual mounting or even window-individual mounting of the components may compensate the fluctuations which resulted in substrate stack manufacturing.

Abstract: For spectrally filtering at least one input beam, a first reflective element is configured to tilt to multiple tilt orientations that each corresponds to a different angle of propagation of at least one input beam. One or more optical elements are configured to change at least some of the relative angles of propagation of the input beam for different tilt orientations of the first reflective element. A spectrally dispersive element is configured to receive the input beam at a location at which the central ray of the input beam is incident at different points on the spectrally dispersive element for each of the tilt orientations, and configured to disperse spectral components of the input beam at different respective angles in a spectral plane. The first reflective element is configured to tilt to select at least one and fewer than all of the dispersed spectral components to be directed to a selected output path.

Abstract: Photometric methods for determining optical pathlength of liquid samples containing analytes dissolved or suspended in a solvent are provided that rely on determining a relationship between the light absorption properties of the solvent and the optical pathlength of liquid samples containing the solvent. This relationship is used to establish the optical pathlength for samples containing an unknown concentration of analyte but having similar solvent composition. Methods are also provided for determining the concentration of analyte in such samples where both the optical pathlength and the concentration of analyte are unknown. The methods may rely on separately determining, at different wavelengths of light, light absorption by the solvent and light absorption by the analyte. Light absorption by the analyte, together with the optical pathlength so determined, is used to calculate the concentration of the analyte.
