BY DEFINITION;
The dark ground microscope is the type of
specimen
objectives
Dark condenser
stage
Diffraction of light
Source of light
A powerful right is needed, modern halogen
lamp are excellent.
Use the plane side of the microscope mirror
accurately centered.
Use several drops of cedar-wool oil to the
upper surface of the condenser, the specimen
is mounted on the slides of the correct
thickness then placed on the stage. The
condenser racked upward until the slides
and the condenser are completely joined by a
thin layer foil.
Clear disc
Opaque disc
Metal disc
In the dark ground method of illumination,
no direct rays of light from condenser to
enters the microscope object are visible not
because they are transverse direct light rays
entering the microscope but because they
cause diffraction, refraction and reflection of
indirect light rays into the microscope.
Diffraction is the property of light waves to
bend round corners.
Reflection is the throwing back of light rays
