Abstract: Laser scanning microscope or spectral detector having a detection beam path and first imaging optics which image spectrally dispersed sample light in a Fourier plane such that the individual spectral components of the sample light are spatially separated from one another therein. A micromirror arrangement is provided in this plane, and a spectrally selective change in direction of the detection beam is carried out by controlling the micromirrors, where a useful light component of the detection beam arrives on a detector. At least one second micromirror arrangement and a 1:1 imaging of the first micromirror arrangement in the second micromirror arrangement is provided. Alternatively, the same micromirror arrangement is passed at least twice, where, in the light path between the first pass and second pass, a spatial offset of the light beam of at least the first pass and second pass is generated on the micromirror arrangement by optical means.

Abstract: A beam combiner for combining a first beam cluster with a second beam cluster that is not parallel to the first, to form a common beam cluster. The beam combiner includes a transparent body for the first beam cluster, which has a superimposition region that is encountered by the first beam cluster as it passes through the body. The superimposition region is split into a first section and a second section. Only the first section formed from interspaced reflective and/or refractive deflection elements causes a deflection of the second beam cluster by reflection and/or refraction, such that the first beam cluster forms the common beam cluster with the deflected second beam cluster once it has left the body.

Each imaging optic so images an image, which is generated in the object plane, that the image can be observed by a user in an image plane and each of the imaging optics includes an optical element (23) and a deflecting element (25) mounted downstream of the optical element (23). An image transducer (24) and the optical element (23), which follows the image transducer (24), are held by a linearly guided receptacle frame (15) moveable via a drive unit.

Each of the adjusting wheels (4, 5) is coupled mechanically to a corresponding cam curve. Each cam curve translates a rotational movement of the adjusting wheel (4, 5) into an output end linear movement of the receptacle frame (15).
