Phase Contrast and Differential Interference Contrast Microscopy

Phase-Contrast Microscopes
In-phase-contrast microscopes, interference between light directly passing through a cell and light refracted by cellular components is used to create high-contrast, high-resolution images without staining. It is the oldest and simplest type of microscope that creates an image by altering the wavelengths of light rays passing through the specimen. Altered wavelength paths are created using an annular stop in the condenser. The annular stop produces a hollow cone of...

Area of Science:

  • Spintronics
  • Quantum Optics
  • Condensed Matter Physics

Background:

  • Polaritons are hybrid light-matter quasiparticles with unique quantum properties.
  • Topological phases in physics offer robust phenomena insensitive to perturbations.

Main Methods:

  • Theoretical modeling of polaritonic wave interference.
  • Analysis of topological Berry phase accumulation in polaritons.
  • Investigating the influence of TE-TM and Zeeman splittings on device output.

Main Results:

  • A novel spin-optronic device based on interfering polaritonic waves is proposed.
  • The device's output intensity is controllable via the ratio of TE-TM and Zeeman splittings.
