Application of a hexagonal aperture on the confocal scanning laser microscope

Hamed, Abdallah;

Abstract


We suggested the hexagonal aperture to compute the point spread function (PSF) by mak ing use of scalar difraction theory and Fourier operations. We have got an analytical for mula for the PSF corresponding to the hexagonal aperture. We compared the PSF results
with that computed by applying the Fast Fourier transform. Hence, we have got the spatial
resolution from the cut-off corresponding to the PSF plot using the hexagonal aperture.
In addition, we gave an application of hexagonal and circular apertures using the CSLM.
Finally, we have got the reconstructed images using the CSLM provided with circular and
hexagonal apertures.
