ABSTRACT:
A system for light splitting particularly suitable for microscopic investtion of living tissues using the so called confocal or tandem scanning by a scanning disk with a number of spirally arranged elementary holes similar to a Nipkow disk. This system for light splitting uses a Koesters reflecting prism having a semi-transparent mirror coating between two parts of said prism. According to this invention this semi-transparent mirror coating is parallel with illuminating pencils of rays striking the prism and with image pencils of rays leaving the prism.
