Bound states in the continuum (BICs) are a special class of resonant states. Although they have the same momentum and energy as the propagating modes in free space, yet they are not coupled to the ...
Light that is reflected back from the edge of the medium it is traveling through. When light rays travel at an angle greater than the "critical" angle, which is determined by the medium, the light ...
Total internal reflection microscopy is a light microscopy technique that relies on total internal reflection of illumination light to generate an evanescent wave that extends less than 200 nm from ...
The DeltaVision OMX V4 enables Total Internal Reflection Fluorescence Microscopy (TIRF). This technique uses an evanescent wave to selectively excite fluorophores that are close to the coverslip. This ...
