Abstract
An optical arrangement for being positioned in a beam path of a light microscope, having at least a first and a second optical assembly for providing structured illumination light from incident light. The optical arrangement provides for light to be guided over different beam paths to the various optical assemblies and in the direction of a sample. Electronic control means are provided and designed to illuminate, in each case, a beam path from the different beam paths to different optical assemblies at a point in time, in that at least a first beam combination mirror is provided for guiding light coming from various optical assemblies to a common beam path in the direction of a sample. The first beam combination mirror has reflective areas on which only light from one of the two optical assemblies is incident and has the light-permeable areas of the beam combination mirror in which only light from the other of the optical assemblies is incident. The invention further relates to a light microscope having an optical arrangement according to the invention.
