ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a multi-functional calibration system (10) for characterizing luminescence measurement systems, in particular spectrally resolving, wide-field and/or confocal imaging systems, with(a) a baseplate (12),(b) at least one calibration module (24) arranged on the baseplate (12) and including at least one calibration and/or characterization function, and(c) at least one focusing device (20) integrated in the baseplate (12) with a focusing surface (22) for setting a defined measurement beam focus of the luminescence measurement systems to be calibrated, the focusing surface (22) arranged in a common plane with the at least one calibration module (24).
