Abstract
A method for regulating the relative position of an analyte of a sample (16) in relation to a light beam (F) includes the illumination of the analyte of the sample (16) with the light beam (F), capturing by an imaging device (38) a transmission image of the beams scattered by the analyte of the sample (16) in order to establish a diffraction pattern, and modifying the relative position of the analyte of the sample (16) in relation to the light beam (F) according to at least one property of the diffraction pattern.
