    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase-contrast_microscopy

    Phase-contrast microscopy (PCM) is an optical microscopy technique that converts phase shifts in light passing through a transparent specimen to brightness changes in the image. Phase shifts themselves are invisible, but become visible when shown as brightness variations.

  15. Phase Contrast Microscopy: A Simple Explanation - Microscope...

    microscopeclarity.com/phase-contrast-microscopy-a-simple-explanation

    Phase contrast microscopy works by using two specific microscope components, the condenser annulus and the objective phase plate, to create a phase shift of light that results in an image with greater contrast perceived by the observer. This allows much more detail to be discernable to an observer.

  16. Phase Contrast Microscopy - University of California, Irvine

    www.chem.uci.edu/~dmitryf/manuals/Fundamentals/Phase contrast microscopy.pdf

    Phase contrast microscopy is a method that enables us to see very transparent objects, which are otherwise almost invisible by ordinary light microscopy, in clear detail and in good contrast to their surroundings. This is achieved optically, without altering the specimen by staining or other processing.

    www.teledynevisionsolutions.com/.../scientific-imaging/phase-contrast-microscopy

    Phase contrast is a technique that exploits the ability of some microscope samples to alter the OPL of light passing through it, adding contrast through the interference of light of different phases. Transparent unstained samples (such as cells) do not absorb light and are called phase objects.
