Quantifying Microorganisms at Low Concentrations Using Digital Holographic Microscopy (DHM)
Published on: November 1, 2017
Abstract:
A three-dimensional holographic image is deteriorated due to quantization of the phase in the hologram. As in two-dimensional Fourier holograms, the deterioration is exhibited as a superposition of false images. However, in the three-dimensional case, the false images fall at depth positions other than the plane of the image to which they correspond. If far out of focus, these false images are harmless.

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...
