Zusammenfassung:A microscope focus control system has a movable sample stage (19; 304), an objective lens system (18; 301), a focus stability beam optical system to direct a focus stability beam (60) to the objective lens system (18; 301), an imaging apparatus (437), a return optical system to return light to the imaging apparatus (437), and a control system. The control system is operable to receive a reference image of the focus stability beam (60) from the objective lens system (18; 301), receive a subsequent image of the focus stability beam (60), and control the sample stage (19; 304) in accordance with the reference image and subsequent image.
