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
Second harmonic imaging microscopy — (SHIM) is based on a nonlinear optical effect known as second harmonic generation (SHG). SHIM has been established as a viable microscope imaging contrast mechanism for visualization of cell and tissue structure and function. A second harmonic… … Wikipedia
Photoconductive atomic force microscopy — (pc AFM) is a scientific technique.. Multi layer photovoltaic cells have gained popularity since mid 1980s.[1] At the time, research was primarily focused on single layer photovoltaic (PV) devices between two electrodes, in which PV properties… … Wikipedia
Fluorescence interference contrast microscopy — Fluorescence interference contrast (FLIC) microscopy is a microscopic technique developed to achieve z resolution on the nanometer scale. FLIC occurs whenever fluorescent objects are in the vicinity of a reflecting surface (e.g. Si wafer). The… … Wikipedia
Rotary polarization — is an optical phenomenon occurring in certain crystalline materials. The vibrational direction of light passing through such a crystal (or sometimes liquids) is rotated so that it varies in a circular manner. The amount of polarization rotation… … Wikipedia
Spin polarized scanning tunneling microscopy — (SP STM) is a specialized application of scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) that can provide detailed information of magentic phenomena on the single atom scale additional to the atomic topology gained with STM. SP STM was developed by Roland… … Wikipedia
Orthogonal polarization spectral imaging — is a method for imaging small blood vessels[1] in tissue like the nail bed or lip. It uses a light source of linearly polarized light with a wavelength of 550 nanometers, the isobestic point for hemoglobin, thus imaging the erythrocytes as they… … Wikipedia
Digital holography — is the technology of acquiring and processing holographic measurement data, typically via a CCD camera or a similar device. In particular, this includes the numerical reconstruction of object data from the recorded measurement data, in… … Wikipedia
