Microscopy

Microscopy is any technique for producing visible images of structures or details too small to be seen by the human eye, using a microscope or other magnification tool.

Classical light microscopy involves passing light transmitted through or reflected from the subject through a series of lenses to be detected directly by the eye, imaged on a photographic plate, or captured digitally. Microscopy requires high precision and repeatability from the components used in the optical path. Key parameters of flatness and low wavefront distortion are critical to avoid image shift and ghost images. JDSU has addressed the microscopy specific requirements by developing hard-dielectric, single substrate filters with the stringent performance characteristics required.
