Abstract

See full text

A method is useable for correcting a spherical aberration of a microscope having an objective and a cover slip or object carrier, the objective having a correction element for correcting the spherical aberration. The method includes: ascertaining, by the microscope, an index of refraction of an optical medium bordering the cover slip or object carrier and/or a thickness of the cover slip or object carrier along an optical axis of the objective, ascertaining the spherical aberration based on the index of refraction of the optical medium and/or the thickness of the cover slip or object carrier, and ascertaining, based on the spherical aberration, a positioning variable, by which the correction element is adjusted so that the spherical aberration is corrected.
