With focusing and stage movement in place, it was time to have a go at imaging something.
So without further ado, I give you our first BluBEAM confocal micrograph!

What is it though? Well, I'm not too sure myself, but it's some kind of old prototype transistor fabricated by the guys at the Microelectronics lab in Cambridge, UK. Black regions are definitely a metal layer, created by e-beam lithography.

Anyway, the great news we get from this image is that we have a sub-micron resolution of about 680nm!
Let's see how far we can get with this now...
