    Opći opis

    Confocal scanning method of CSU10 is based on the Nipkow disk scanner(1884); an optical scanner using rotation of a disk with pinholes to produce an image. While a Nipkow scanner is good at fast scanning, its optical efficiency is too low to capture dark fluorescent images.By placing a microlens array in front of the Nipkow disk, we greatly improved the optical efficiency about two orders. In addition,CSU10 is designed to minimize the background inside the system thus realized high S/N.
    Fast scanning, high optical efficiency and high S/N in the system: these are the key factors to realize the direct viewing of clear-cut confocal images in CSU10!

    CSU10 has two disks; one with about 20,000 microlenses, the other with pin-holes arranged in the same pattern as the microlenses. Light incident on the upper disk is focused by the microlenses on corresponding pinholes. The two disks rotate together at 1,800 rpm by an electrical motor so that the light beams raster-scan the specimen. The light passing through the pinhole is focused by an objective lens on a spot in the specimen. Fluorescent light from the specimen returns along the same path through the objective lens and the pinhole, and reflected by the dichroic mirror through a relay lens to the imaging point in a camera or eye. Both the laser beam and the emitted fluorescent light pass through a pinhole, thus CSU10 can produces 2-dimensional confocal images at such high speed. The pinhole pattern is designed to capture 12 frames per rotation, which means 360 frames per second of confocal images can be captured with CSU10.
