An easy to construct sub-micron resolution imaging system
Abstract We report an easy to construct imaging system that can resolve particles separated by $$\ge $$ ≥ 0.68 $$\upmu $$ μ m with minimum aberrations. Its first photon collecting lens is placed at a distance of 31.6 mm giving wide optical access. The microscope has a Numerical Aperture (NA) of 0.33...
