microscope — /muy kreuh skohp /, n. 1. an optical instrument having a magnifying lens or a combination of lenses for inspecting objects too small to be seen or too small to be seen distinctly and in detail by the unaided eye. 2. (cap.) Astron. the… … Universalium
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
Two-photon excitation microscopy — is a fluorescence imaging technique that allows imaging of living tissue up to a very high depth, that is up to about one millimeter. Being a special variant of the multiphoton fluorescence microscope, it uses red shifted excitation light which… … Wikipedia
Microscope — An optical instrument that augments the power of the eye to see small objects. The name microscope was coined by Johannes Faber (1574 1629) who in 1628 borrowed from the Greek to combined micro , small with skopein, to view. Although the first… … Medical dictionary

Differential interference contrast microscopy — Micrasterias furcata imaged in transmitted DIC microscopy. Differential interference contrast microscopy (DIC), also known as Nomarski Interference Contrast (NIC) or Nomarski microscopy, is an optical microscopy illumination technique used to… … Wikipedia
Near-field scanning optical microscope — Near field scanning optical microscopy (NSOM/SNOM) is a microscopic technique for nanostructure investigation that breaks the far field resolution limit by exploiting the properties of evanescent waves. This is done by placing the detector very… … Wikipedia
Condenser (microscope) — A condenser is one of the main components of the optical system of many transmitted light compound microscopes. A condenser is a lens that serves to concentrate light from the illumination source that is in turn focused through the object and… … Wikipedia
