  • Calibrated focus sensing
    Patent number: 11644406
    Abstract: An apparatus for evaluating focus, including (a) a stage configured to hold a specimen; and (b) an optical train including a radiation source, calibration optic, objective and detector, the optical train forming a first path wherein radiation from the radiation source is directed to the calibration optic and then a first portion of the radiation is directed to the detector, thereby forming a first image on the detector, wherein a second portion of the radiation follows a second path from the calibration optic then through the objective to the specimen, wherein the optical train forms a third path wherein radiation reflected from the specimen is transmitted through the objective, then to the detector, thereby forming a second image on the detector, and wherein the radiation that forms the first image is astigmatic.

  • Method and system for biological imaging using a wide field objective lens
    Patent number: 11644636
    Abstract: An objective lens is used for DNA sequencing. An example system includes a flow cell, the objective lens, and a camera. Light from the flow cell is imaged by the camera through the objective lens. The objective lens can provide a long working distance; a flat field curvature; a high numerical aperture; and/or a wide field of view.
