  • Parallel confocal laser microscopy system based on vcsel technology
    Publication number: 20060256194
    Abstract: A parallel confocal laser microscopy system (2) includes a VCSEL vertical cavity laser array (23) for emitting light beams, optical elements (24) for focusing the light beams onto an object (25) to be observed. The invention is characterized in that a photodetector (22) is arranged behind each VCSEL laser such that the photodetector is capable of receiving a light beam backscattered from the object (25) via the VCSEL laser cavity, the cavity having an opening acting as filtering hole.
