Abstract: Light scanning microscope for recording at least one sample area by a relative movement between illumination light and sample, whereby an illumination light illuminated the sample in parallel in several spots or areas and several spots or areas are simultaneously detected with a detector arrangement and several illuminated sample points lie on a line and several points are simultaneously detected with a detector having local resolution whereby detection beams are provided with replaceable and/or switchable beam splitters and/or filters.

Abstract: Process for the acquisition of images from a probe with a light scanning electron microscope with linear scanning, wherein detected image data that correspond to three dimensional probe regions are detected and stored to memory, wherein data compression ensues in that the data of images lying next to one another and over one another on the probe are taken into consideration during compression. A stack of images is advantageously recorded and images that are respectively adjacent in the image stack are consulted for the compression of data. Temporally and/or spectrally detected and stored data shall be consulted for the compression of data.

Abstract: Procedure for the image acquisition of objects by means of a light raster microscope with line by line scanning, whereas a scanning of the probe for the creation of a probe image occurs in scanning steps and the distance between at least two scanning steps is variably adjustable and at least a second scanning of the probe occurs, during which the position of the scanning steps is shifted with regard to the scanning direction, whereas preferably a line by line scanning of the probe is carried out.

Abstract: Process for the observation of at least one sample region with a light raster microscope by a relative movement between the illumination light and sample via first scanning means along at least one scanning axis essentially perpendicular to the illumination axis wherein the illumination light illuminates the sample in parallel at several points or regions and several points or regions are detected simultaneously wherein at an angle to the plane of the relative movement, preferably perpendicular thereto, second scanning means are moved and an image acquisition takes place by the movement of the first and second scanning means being coupled and a three-dimensional sampling movement being done by the illumination of the sample wherein the second scanning means are coupled to the movement of the first scanning means in such a manner that straight and/or curved lines and/or plane and/or curved surfaces are scanned which are extended along at least one scanning direction of the first scanning means as well as along
