A generalized technique of two-wavelength, nondiffuse holographic interferometry
Abstract:
A generalized technique of two-wavelength, nondiffuse holographic interferometry is developed for use with transparent experimental media. It is shown that a single pair of nondiffuse transmission holograms recorded simultaneously at different wavelengths can be reconstructed so as to produce a large number of interferograms with widely varying sensitivities. For ease in interpretation, these interferograms can have either an infinite-fringe background or a multiple-fringe background with any desired fringe orientation and spacing.

Phase Contrast and Differential Interference Contrast Microscopy
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...
