An apparatus for structured illumination of a specimen comprises an illumination device for generating illumination beams. The illumination beams are incident on a mask device. Openings provided in the mask device serve for generating a mask image. The mask image is imaged within the specimen with the aid of an objective. Detection beams generated by the specimen are captured by a detection device. For increasing the intensity of the observation beams entering the specimen, those beams which do not pass through the openings, are collected with the aid of a beam collector and guided back to the mask device.

Apparatus for structured illumination of a specimen

An apparatus for confocal observation of a specimen includes an illumination device. The illumination device generates illumination radiations of at least two different wavelengths. With the aid of a mask device illuminated by the illumination radiations, one mask image is generated per wavelength. An objective serves for imaging said mask images in the specimen. With the aid of a beam splitter device, the emission radiations emitted by the specimen are divided based on the wavelengths, and are detected based on the wavelengths by a detection device.
