The invention relates to a light source comprising a microstructured optical element (11) that receives and spectrally spreads the light from a primary light source (3). The inventive light source is characterized in that the spectrally spread light penetrates at least one other microstructured optical element (15, 19, 21). Said light source can be efficiently used in scanning microscopy and especially in STED microscopy.
