ABSTRACT:
A confocal scanning microscope can process two-dimensional or third-dimensional optical information at high speed and can be simplified in arrangement. The confocal scanning microscope includes an optical coupling device array composed of a plurality of optical coupling devices arranged on a common substrate in a one-dimensional or two-dimensional fashion, and an objective lens, wherein each of the optical coupling devices has a light-emitting portion and a light-receiving portion closely disposed on the common substrate, and reflected-back light obtained from a target object after light emitted from the light-emitting portion has been reflected on the target object is received and detected near a confocal position by the light-receiving portion.
