TRANSMITTED LIGHT

 

     TRANSMITTED LIGHT PHASE CONTRAST is an illumination technique which enhances the phase difference between the specimen and its surroundings.  Specimens which have a refractive index similar to their surroundings can be invisible in Brightfield, but are well defined in Phase Contrast.  Phase Contrast requires a special set of objectives with phase rings placed in the back focal plane of the objective.  A matching phase ring is placed in the condenser.  A Phase Turret condenser will usually have a Brightfield position as well as Phase positions to match each Phase objective.  Phase Contrast is normally used to examine unstained biological specimens.
