Microscopy: Differential Interference Contrast (DIC) Microscopy (Edward Salmon)

Learn more: https://www.ibiology.org/talks/differential-interference-contrast/ Differential Interference Contrast (sometimes known as Normarski microscopy) is a variation of polarization microscopy which generates a high contrast "shadow" image of a specimen. The mechanism of the DIC (Wollaston) prisms is discussed along with how to generate optimal contrast.
