phase contrast, and both 2-D and 3-D fluorescence imaging. The OLYMPUS BX51 research microscope is a union of Olympus infinity corrected optical systems (UIS2 – universal infinity system) and advanced ...

Scientists suggest leveraging an optical phenomenon called chromatic aberration -- that usually degrades image quality -- to produce suitable images with standard microscopes. Quantitative phase ...

Quantitative phase imaging (QPI) is a microscopy technique widely used to ... is one of the most significant developments in optics. Due to the wave nature of light, even the best lens ...

1c) has no equivalent in the interference-microscopy market. It allows quantitative characterization of the optical behaviour of transparent samples by measuring the phase shift of the light ...

This is because optical resolution is not sufficient ... a technique analogous to Zernike phase contrast in light microscopy (that is, converting phase into amplitude information) needs to ...
