Abstract
A confocal microscope unit according to an embodiment includes: a first subunit which includes a light source, a pinhole plate, and a photodetector; a second subunit which includes a light source, a pinhole plate, and a photodetector; a scan mirror which scans excitation light output from the first and second subunits on a sample via a microscope optical system and guides fluorescence generated from the sample in response to the excitation light and focused by the microscope optical system to the first and second subunits; and a main housing which is attachable to a connection port and to which the scan mirror, the first subunit, and the second subunit are fixed, wherein the first subunit and the second subunit are disposed in the main housing so that incident angles of two excitation lights to the scan mirror are displaced from each other by a predetermined angle.
