Abstract
An optical component for a microscope may include a low-autofluorescence substrate, or a substrate and a high-performance anti-reflective layer coating the substrate. An optical component may include a low-autofluorescence substrate and high-performance anti-reflective layer coating the low-autofluorescence substrate. The high-performance anti-reflective layer may be a low-autofluorescence high-performance anti-reflective layer. A microscope may include one or more such optical components.
