Abstract
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.
