Radiolarians are single-celled protistan marine organisms that distinguish themselves with their unique and intricately detailed glass-like exoskeletons. ... When observed with an optical microscope, radiolarian tests are found to be low contrast light-scattering objects that are best viewed using Rheinberg illumination, darkfield illumination, phase contrast, or differential interference contrast (DIC) microscopy techniques. 3, record 1, English, - differential%20interference%20contrast

L'imagerie par contraste interférentiel différentiel a été mise au point par Normaski. Elle permet d'obtenir des images fortement contrastées. La lumière d'illumination de l'échantillon est polarisée, puis les polarisations parallèles et perpendiculaires sont séparées d'une distance variable et réglable par un prisme de Wollaston, situé avant le condenseur. 2, record 1, French, - contraste%20interf%C3%A9rentiel%20diff%C3%A9rentiel
