  2. Diaphragm (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diaphragm_(optics)

    The iris is the diaphragm, the pupil is the aperture. In the human eye, the iris can both constrict and dilate, which varies the size of the pupil. Unsurprisingly, a photographic lens with the ability to continuously vary the size of its aperture (the hole in the middle of the annular structure) is known as an iris diaphragm.

    The field diaphragm is then partially closed; the edges of the diaphragm should be in the same conjugate image planes as the specimen, therefore should appear in focus. The focus can be adjusted by raising or lowering the condenser lenses and diaphragm. Finally, the field diaphragm is reopened to just beyond the field of view.

  4. Bright-field microscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bright-field_microscopy

    A bright-field microscope has many important parts including; the condenser, the objective lens, the ocular lens, the diaphragm, and the aperture. Some other pieces of the microscope that are commonly known are the arm, the head, the illuminator, the base, the stage, the adjusters, and the brightness adjuster.

  5. Condenser (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condenser_(optics)

    The Arlow-Abbe condenser is a modified Abbe condenser that replaces the iris diaphragm, filter holder, lamp and lamp optics with a small OLED or LCD digital display unit. The display unit allows for digitally synthesised filters for dark-field, Rheinberg, oblique and dynamic (constantly changing) illumination under direct computer control.

  6. Pupil function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pupil_function

    The pupil function or aperture function describes how a light wave is affected upon transmission through an optical imaging system such as a camera, microscope, or the human eye. More specifically, it is a complex function of the position in the pupil [ 1 ] or aperture (often an iris ) that indicates the relative change in amplitude and phase ...

  8. Aperture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aperture

    Different apertures of a lens In biology, the pupil (appearing as a black hole) of the eye is its aperture and the iris is its diaphragm. In humans, the pupil can constrict to as small as 2 mm (f / 8.3) and dilate to larger than 8 mm (f / 2.1) in some individuals.

  9. Human eye - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_eye

    In order, along the optic axis, the optical components consist of a first lens (the cornea—the clear part of the eye) that accounts for most of the optical power of the eye and accomplishes most of the focusing of light from the outside world; then an aperture (the pupil) in a diaphragm (the iris—the coloured part of the eye) that controls ...
