What Is The Difference Between Brightfield And Phase Contrast Microscopy?

by

What Is The Difference Between Brightfield And Phase Contrast Microscopy? An amplitude specimen decreases the intensity (i.e. the amplitude) of the light. Phase specimens cause a phase shift of the light. Phase contrast microscopy is now capable of converting a difference in refractive index into a difference in brightness. … What is the main difference

How Can We Build A Microscope With A Higher Resolution?

by

How Can We Build A Microscope With A Higher Resolution? To achieve the maximum (theoretical) resolution in a microscope system, each of the optical components should be of the highest NA available (taking into consideration the angular aperture). In addition, using a shorter wavelength of light to view the specimen will increase the resolution. What
