Thus, equations (2) and (3) for the widths of the axial and
lateral half-intensity areas are transformed into:

Wave-opticalconfocality
If the pinhole is closed down to a diameter of <0.25 AU (vir-
tually “infinitely small”), the character of the image changes.
Additional diffraction effects at the pinhole have to be taken
into account, and PSFdet (optical slice thickness) shrinks
to the order of magnitude of PSF
ill
(Z resolution) (see also
figure 7c).
In order to achieve simple formulae for the range of smallest
pinhole diameters, it is practical to regard the limit of PH = 0
at first, even though it is of no practical use. In this case,
PSF
det
and PSF
ill
are identical. The total PSF can be written as:
In fluorescence applications it is furthermore necessary to
consider both the excitation wavelength
λ
exc
and the emis-
sion wavelength
λ
em
. This is done by specifying a mean
wavelength 1 :
