Focus optimization in a Computational Confocal Microscope
We consider the numerical optimization of performance for a computational extension of a confocal microscope. Using a system where the pinhole detector is replaced with a detector array, we seek to exploit this additional information for each point in the scan. We derive an optimal estimate of the light at focus which minimizes the contribution of out-of-focus light. We estimate the amount of improvement that would be theoretically possible in point-scanning and line-scanning systems and demonstrate with simulation. We find that even with a large degree of regularization, a significant improvement is possible, especially for line-scanning systems.
