  2. 1951 USAF resolution test chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1951_USAF_resolution_test...

    It is widely used in optical engineering laboratory work to analyze and validate imaging systems such as microscopes, cameras and image scanners. [ 1 ] The full standard pattern consists of 9 groups, with each group consisting of 6 elements; thus there are 54 target elements provided in the full series.

  3. Polarimeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polarimeter

    Modern automatic polarimeter with touchscreen and camera image of filled sample cell. Fully automatic polarimeters are now widely used and simply require the user to press a button and wait for a digital readout. Fast automatic digital polarimeters yield an accurate result within a few seconds, regardless of the rotation angle of the sample.

  4. Optical sectioning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_sectioning

    With no modification to the microscope, i.e. with a simple wide field light microscope, the quality of optical sectioning is governed by the same physics as the depth of field effect in photography. For a high numerical aperture lens, equivalent to a wide aperture , the depth of field is small ( shallow focus ) and gives good optical sectioning.

  5. Calibration curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calibration_curve

    A calibration curve plot showing limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantification (LOQ), dynamic range, and limit of linearity (LOL).. In analytical chemistry, a calibration curve, also known as a standard curve, is a general method for determining the concentration of a substance in an unknown sample by comparing the unknown to a set of standard samples of known concentration.

  6. Microscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microscopy

    Scanning electron microscope image of pollen (false colors) Microscopic examination in a biochemical laboratory. Microscopy is the technical field of using microscopes to view objects and areas of objects that cannot be seen with the naked eye (objects that are not within the resolution range of the normal eye).

  7. Certified reference materials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Certified_reference_materials

    Certified reference materials (CRMs) are 'controls' or standards used to check the quality and metrological traceability of products, to validate analytical measurement methods, or for the calibration of instruments. [1] A certified reference material is a particular form of measurement standard.

  8. Fiducial marker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiducial_marker

    The appearance of markers in images may act as a reference for image scaling, or may allow the image and physical object, or multiple independent images, to be correlated. By placing fiducial markers at known locations in a subject, the relative scale in the produced image may be determined by comparison of the locations of the markers in the ...

  9. Optical rotation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_rotation

    Dextrorotation and laevorotation (also spelled levorotation) [1] [2] in chemistry and physics are the optical rotation of plane-polarized light.From the point of view of the observer, dextrorotation refers to clockwise or right-handed rotation, and laevorotation refers to counterclockwise or left-handed rotation.
