Spatial filtering in the transform plane

By: plintilh

Using a small aperture slider to remove diffracted orders in the transform plane eliminates detail in the image plane.

Diffraction pattern in the transform plane

By: plintilh

Demonstration of diffraction patterns in a test object - (Diatom test slide).

See back focal plane using telescope

By: plintilh

The rear focal plane of the objective can be observed using a telescope insert into the eyepiece tube.

3:35

Spatial deteil vs acceptance angle

By: plintilh

Acceptance angle of objective must be wide enough to collect at least first order diffracted rays

2:42

Zero order has no information

By: plintilh

Spatial information is encoded in the diffracted rays.

Describes how transparent objects may only retard light without diffracting it

2:58
