Interference microscopy — involving measurements of differences in the path between two beams of light that have been split.[1] Types include: Classical interference microscopy Differential interference contrast microscopy Fluorescence interference contrast microscopy See … Wikipedia
interference microscopy — Although all image formation depends on interference, the term is generally restricted to systems in which contrast comes from the recombination of a reference beam with light that has been retarded by passing through the object. Because the… … Dictionary of molecular biology
Classical interference microscopy — (also referred to as quantitative interference microscopy) uses two separate light beams with much greater lateral separation than that used in phase contrast microscopy or in differential interference microscopy (DIC). In variants of the… … Wikipedia
Microscopy — is the technical field of using microscopes to view samples and objects that cannot be seen with the unaided eye (objects that are not within the resolution range of the normal eye). There are three well known branches of microscopy, optical,… … Wikipedia

Interference lithography — (or holographic lithography) is a technique for patterning regular arrays of fine features, without the use of complex optical systems or photomasks. Basic principleThe basic principle is the same as in interferometry or holography. An… … Wikipedia
Microscopy — The examination of minute objects by means of a microscope, an instrument which provides an enlarged image of an object not visible with the naked eye. Aside from the usual microscopy, there are various special types of microscopy including, for… … Medical dictionary
interference reflection microscopy — An optical technique for detecting the topography of the side of a cell in contact with a planar substrate, and for providing information on the separation of the plasmalemma from the substrate.
