An illuminating device for a microscope may include a holder which carries a plurality of lighting units to be positioned in an illuminating target position. It may also include a pivot system with which the holder can be rotated about a pivot axis such that each lighting unit can be positioned selectively in the illuminating target position, wherein the rotational range of the holder about the pivot axis is less than 360°.

An objective lens assembly is provided, with a sleeve, a first positioning member arranged in the sleeve, which is housed displaceable in longitudinal direction of the sleeve and holds at least one lens, a first adjustment unit which brings the first positioning member into abutment on the inside of the sleeve such that the first positioning member rests against the inside of the sleeve in a first linear contact area and at the same time the displaceability of the first positioning member is maintained. More than one positioning member can be utilized along with multiple lenses and can utilize simple mechanical structures (e.g., blind- and through-holes and pins or shanks) and/or magnetic or magnetisable materials to maintain a desired position of the sleeve.

A focusing method for an optical instrument for magnified viewing of an object is disclosed. The instrument includes instrument optics, an adjusting unit for adjusting the focal position when viewing the object by means of the instrument optics, as well as a recording unit which records the object by means of the instrument optics. The method includes: a) producing at least two images with different focal positions, b) applying several different sharpness functions each of which has an absolute extremum which specifies the optimum focal position to be set for the viewing and which lies in a close focus range of the sharpness function adjoined on both sides by a far focus range which is more susceptible to interferences during recording than the close focus range and therefore contains local secondary extrema, in each case to each of the at least two images, and evaluation thereof with the focal position as a variable such that a sharpness function variation direction of the focal position is calculated for each sharpness function in order to arrive at the optimum focal position, c) determining a main variation direction based on all sharpness function variation directions, and d) using the determined main variation direction during further focusing.

A stage drive for moving a microscope stage designed as a mechanical stage including a first drive element linked to a first output element, and a second drive element, which is linked to a second output element. Through first and second transmission elements, the first output element is linked to a first stage element and the second output element is linked to a second stage element of the mechanical stage supported by the first stage element. The stage elements are supported so as to be displaceable relative to a fixed base element in orthogonal directions X, Y in a plane extending normal to the optical axis of the microscope beam path. The at least one stage drive includes at least one drive element and at least one output element and is arranged in the base element so as to be displaceable in X direction and/or Y direction within an adjustment range and lockable.

The present solution is directed to a measuring system and a method for determining spectrometric measurement results with high accuracy. The spectrometric measuring system, comprises a radiation source, an entrance slit, a dispersion element, and a detector with detector elements arranged in a linear or matrix-shaped manner in one or more planes. The detector has an even distribution of at least two different wavelength-selective filters on its detector elements. While detectors from photography and video applications are used for this purpose, use of the invention is not limited to the visible spectral region. Further, color filters on the pixels may be omitted or modified in the manufacturing process. It is also possible to use other types of detectors in which the wavelength-selective filters and associated detectors are arranged one behind each other in a plurality of planes in which complete color information is available to each individual picture point.

The invention is directed to a highly sensitive spectrum analysis unit with a diffraction grating, wherein a parallel light bundle having a wavelength range impinges on a diffraction grating which splits the different wavelengths into spectra by diffraction in first directions, and wavelength partial ranges of the spectrally split light bundle can be focused on a detector row by means of camera optics, and evaluation electronics are connected to the detector row and acquire the generated spectrum as information and display it. The invention is characterized in that the light bundle passes a first optical element, and then wavelength partial ranges of a spectrally split light bundle impinge on respective partial regions of a diffraction grating, the diffraction grating having the same grating constant across all partial regions and a changing profile shape, the profile shapes generating different blaze wavelengths that lie in the respective wavelength partial ranges.
