摘要：

A plane-parallel plate of a specific thickness placed in front of the collecting lens in a confocal microscope (CM) is used to produce multiple-transmitted-light interference to sharpen the Airy main lobe so that the lateral resolution in the x-direction can be further improved. Numerical experiments show that the lateral full-width at half maximum in the x-direction has been narrowed down to 50 nm, and the lateral resolution has been improved by 80% in comparison with a conventional CM when thickness d = 5 mm, reflectivity R = 0.7, and NA = 0.65.
