WHAT DOES ULTRAMICROSCOPE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Ultramicroscope

An ultramicroscope is a microscope with a system of illumination that allows viewing of tiny particles. When the diameter of a particle is below or near the wavelength of visible light, the particle cannot be seen in a light microscope with the usual method of illumination. The ultramicroscope system is based on light scattering, not light reflection. In the system, the particles to be observed are dispersed in a liquid or gas colloid. The colloid is placed in a light-absorbing, dark enclosure, and illuminated with a convergent beam of intense light entering from one side. Light hitting the colloid particles will be scattered. In discussions about light scattering, the converging beam is called a "Tyndall cone". The scene is viewed through an ordinary microscope placed at right angles to the direction of the lightbeam. Under the microscope, the individual particles will appear as small fuzzy spots of light moving irregularly. The spots are inherently fuzzy because light scattering produces fuzzier images than light reflection. The particles are in Brownian motion in most kinds of liquid and gas colloids, which causes the movement of the spots.

Definition of ultramicroscope in the English dictionary

The definition of ultramicroscope in the dictionary is a microscope used for studying colloids, in which the sample is strongly illuminated from the side and colloidal particles are seen as bright points on a dark background Also called: dark-field microscope.
