ABSTRACT:
Arrangement and method for the optical detection of light radiation which is excited and/or backscattered in a specimen, wherein the illumination of the specimen and/or the detection of the specimen light is carried out by at least two objectives arranged on different sides of the specimen. The specimen illumination is focused in or in the vicinity of a pupil plane of the beam path between the specimen plane and the detection plane at least on one axis and an element for the spatial separation of the illumination light from the detection light are provided in this plane.
