Brightfield microscopy is the most elementary form of microscope illumination techniques... The name "brightfield" is derived from the fact that the specimen is dark and contrasted by the surrounding bright viewing field.... In brightfield microscopy a specimen is placed on the stage of the microscope and incandescent light from the microscope's light source is aimed at a lens beneath the specimen.... light passes through the specimen and then is collected by an objective lens situated in a turret above the stage.... This technique can be used to view fixed specimens or live cells. Since many organic specimens are transparent or opaque, staining is required to cause the contrast that allows them to be visible under the microscope.  2, record 1, English, - bright%2Dfield%20optical%20microscopy

La microscopie optique en champ clair (ou «à fond clair») est la plus simple et la plus ancienne des techniques de microscopie. [...] L'illumination se fait par transmission de lumière blanche, c'est-à-dire que l'échantillon est illuminé par dessous et observé par dessus. Les limitations de cette technique sont principalement un faible contraste de la plupart des échantillons biologiques et une résolution faible due au flou créé par la matière hors du plan focal. En contrepartie, la technique est simple et l'échantillon ne nécessite qu'une préparation minime.  1, record 1, French, - microscopie%20optique%20en%20champ%20clair

Inside the radio-wave lamp. An electronic oscillator linked to a small, coiled antenna produces radio waves much like a radio station. Electrons in atoms of mercury vapor absorb the radio waves, which excite the electrons to a higher "energy state". The electrons emit photons, or packets, of invisible ultraviolet light. A phosphor coating on the inside of the bulb absorbs the ultraviolet light, exciting electrons, which then emit visible light.  1, record 13, English, - radio%2Dwave%20bulb

Last week a small California company announced that next year, it plans to market the "E-(for electronic) Lamp, "a bulb that will be completely interchangeable with incandescents, use a quarter as much energy-and last a decade or more. The secret is a tiny radio-frequency generator in each bulb, transmitting energy to a surrounding cloud of mercury gas and in turn to the fluorescent coating. There are some 1. 5 billion light sockets in the United States; each incandescent that is replaced by an E-Lamp would save an estimated ton of carbon dioxide from electrical generating stations over the life of the bulb, a small step toward reducing emissions of greenhouse gases.  1, record 13, English, - radio%2Dwave%20bulb

Since the electronic components last indefinitely, the bulb should fail only when the phosphor deteriorates (or someone knocks the lamp off the table).
