Spherulitic crystals of hippuric acid, a carboxylic acid found in urine, imaged with crossed polarizers showing so-called Maltese crosses. Spherulitic structures are formed by radial crystal growth starting from a central crystal nucleus. Image recorded with a DM4 P microscope using transmitted light, 20x Plan Fluotar objective, and polarizers.

A Guide to Polarized Light Microscopy

Polarized light microscopy (POL) enhances contrast in birefringent materials and is used in geology, biology, and materials science to study minerals, crystals, fibers, and plant cell walls.

An Introduction to Fluorescence

This article gives an introduction to fluorescence and photoluminescence, which includes phosphorescence, explains the basic theory behind them, and how fluorescence is used for microscopy.

Phasenkontrast und Mikroskopie

Dieser Artikel erklärt den Phasenkontrast, eine optische Mikroskopietechnik, die feine Details von ungefärbten, transparenten Proben sichtbar macht, die mit gewöhnlicher Hellfeldbeleuchtung schwer zu…

A Guide to Darkfield Microscopes

A darkfield microscope offers a way to view the structures of many types of biological specimens in greater contrast without the need of stains.

Phasenkontrast

Mit einem Phasenkontrast-Lichtmikroskop können die Strukturen vieler Arten von biologischen Präparaten mit einem größeren Kontrast betrachtet werden, ohne dass die Probe eingefärbt werden muss.

The Fundamentals and History of Fluorescence and Quantum Dots

At some point in your research and science career, you will no doubt come across fluorescence microscopy. This ubiquitous technique has transformed the way in which microscopists can image, tag and…

Introduction to Widefield Microscopy

This article gives an introduction to widefield microscopy, one of the most basic and commonly used microscopy techniques. It also shows the basic differences between widefield and confocal…

Basic Principles of Luminescence

There are a lot of light-emitting processes occurring in nature. Luminescence is an umbrella term for those kinds of events where light emission is not the result of high temperatures. This article…
