Schematic of superSIL microscope. a Side-view (top of the panel) and top-view (centre of the panel) of superSIL assembly. The side view shows the location of the sample plane (aplanatic surface of the superSIL). The photo of an assembly is at the bottom of the panel. b Schematic of key components in the microscope. An upright microscope configuration was employed. The blue shading illustrates the Köhler illumination laser beam and the green shading indicates the fluorescence emission.
