Rock minerals: their chemical and physical characters and ...
Standards of Comparative Refringence. — Owing to the importance of
distinguishing the relative refringence of colorless minerals in rock sections as a
means of their identification certain relationships should be noted. In isotropic
media the ...

Elements of optical mineralogy: an introduction to ...
be used to estimate the difference between the refringence of the crystal and that
of the balsam. In using the relief as a means of estimating refringence, it is
important to remember that the apparent relief is increased by (i) absorption, ...

Fiber Optic Sensors, Second Edition
Under high-pressure conditions, dual effective Bragg reflective wavelengths are
generated from a single FBG wavelength due to stress-induced bi-refringence in
the core as there are two air holes in the cladding. By detection of the peak- ...
Shizhuo Yin, Paul B. Ruffin, Francis T.S. Yu, 2008
Skeletal muscle exhibits positive uniaxial bi-refringence with the optical axis in
the long axis of the muscle. In case of smooth muscle, the bi-refringence is
uniform throughout the length of the muscle fibre but in skeletal muscle the
regions of ...

Roadmap on Photonic Crystals
Therefore, this phenomenon is known as quadruple-refringence or multi-
refringence.3 Two branches seen in Fig. 2.4.6 are the origin of this multi-
refringence. In a uniaxial crystal where birefringence occurs, one of the two
resulting polarized ...

Progress in Invertebrate Zoology
As mitosis proceeds, the micronuclei increase in uniaxial bi-refringence and
elongate to from irregular ovoids that convert to angular structures displaying
principal axis of positive bi-refringence, so divergent as to appear oriented at a
right ...

Rock-Forming Minerals: Orthosilicates, Volume 1A:
Distinguishing Features The humite group minerals when colourless may be
difficult to distinguish from olivine but have a lower refringence and smaller optic
axial angle, especially compared with the magnesium-rich olivines with which
they ...

AMYLOID FORMATION IN VITRO BY URE2P Amyloid is an abnormal
filamentous form of protein characterized by high β-sheet content, protease-
resistance, and yellow-green bi-refringence on staining with Congo red (
Kisilevsky and Fraser, ...

Oocyte Physiology and Development in Domestic Animals
Refringence. Zona pellucida (ZP) birefringence is another morphological criterion
that has been used to reinforce the selection of high-quality oocytes. In fact, the
inner immediate layers of CCs are connected with the ZP, which is a thick ...
