Amplitude-Contrast Microscopy

Amplitude contrast microscopy (MAC) is a microscopy method that allows you to study the structure and properties of objects at the microscopic level. MAC is based on the use of the amplitude-contrast method, which consists of measuring the difference in the intensity of light passing through an object as its state changes.

The operating principle of the MAC is based on the fact that when light passes through an object, various optical effects occur, such as reflection, refraction, scattering and absorption. These effects depend on the properties of the object, such as its shape, size, color, etc.

To measure amplitude-contrast effects, a special microscope is used that can change the intensity of light passing through the lens. In this case, images of the object with different light intensities are displayed on the monitor screen.

MAK is widely used in various fields of science and technology, such as biology, medicine, materials science, optics, etc. It allows one to obtain information about the structure and properties of objects at the micro level, which is important for the research and development of new materials and technologies.
