Abstract
An optical microscope device includes: a first illumination optical system including a light source that emits illumination light for illuminating a specimen an LCOS spatial light modulation element that controls a polarization state of the illumination light, a first illumination optical member that uniformly illuminates the LCOS spatial light modulation element, and a polarization optical element that controls a transmission state of the illumination light directed to the specimen from the LCOS spatial light modulation element in response to the polarization state of the illumination light; a second illumination optical system including a second illumination optical member that images a light flux from the first illumination optical system on a specimen surface; and an imaging optical system for imaging the specimen surface.
