How Fine can You See?
• Can you see a sugar cube? The
thickness of a sewing needle? The
thickness of a piece of paper? …
• The resolution of human eyes is of the
order of 0.1 mm.
• However, something vital to human
beings are of sizes smaller than 0.1mm,
e.g. our cells, bacteria, microstructural
details of materials, etc.
Microstructural Features
which Concern Us
• Grain size: from <m to the cm regime
• Grain shapes
• Precipitate size: mostly in the m
regime
• Volume fractions and distributions of
various phases
• Defects such as cracks and voids: <m
to the cm regime
• ……
What is a Microscope?
A microscope is an instrument designed to make
fine details visible. The microscope must accomplish
three tasks:
1. To produce a magnified image of the specimen
(magnification).
2. To separate the details in the image (resolution).
3. To render the details visible to the eye, camera,
or other imaging device (contrast).
Introduction- Optical Microscopy
• Use visible light as illumination source
• Has a resolution of ~o.2m
• Range of samples characterized - almost
unlimited for solids and liquid crystals
• Usually nondestructive; sample preparation
may involve material removal
•Main use – direct visual observation;
preliminary observation for final characterization with applications in geology, medicine,
materials research and engineering, industries,
and etc.
• Cost - $15,000-$390,000 or more

A microscope is an instrument used to see objects that are
too small for the naked eye. The science of investigating small
objects using such an instrument is called microscopy.

Image Formation by a Converging Lens
Two fundamental properties of lenses:
1. Deviating a light beam parallel to its own axis, then making
it to pass through the focus;
2. Leaving unaltered the path of the rays which pass through
the lens center.
The A ray (principal ray) passes through the lens center and is not
deflected.
The B ray comes to the lens moving parallel to the axis and passes
through F1.
The C ray which in a similar way passes through F2 and leaves the
lens parallel to the optical axis.
Any two of these three characteristic rays can be utilized to
determine the size and placement of the image formed by the
lens.

Maximum Magnification of a Lens
1/f = 1/O + 1/i
• Angular magnification is maximum when
virtual image is at “near point” of the eye,
i.e. 25 cm (i = -25 cm)
• Using the lens formula, o = 25f/(25+f )
• q0  h/25

Magnification when the Eyes
are Relaxed
1/f = 1/O + 1/i
• The eyes can focus at points from infinity to
the “near point” but is most relaxed while
focus at infinity.
• When o = f, i = 
• For this case, q0  h/25 and q  h/f

Limitations of a Single Lens
• From the formula, larger magnification
requires smaller focal length
• The focal length of a lens with
magnification 10 is approximately
2.5cm while that of a 100 lens is
2.5mm.
• Lens with such a short focal length
(~2.5mm) is very difficult to make
• Must combine lenses to achieve high
magnifications
Image Formation in Compound Microscope
Compound microscope consists of two converging lenses,
the objective and the eyepiece (ocular).
25cm
• Object (O) placed just outside focal point of objective lens
• A real inverted (intermediate) image (I1) forms at or close to
focal point of eyepiece.
• The eyepiece produces a further magnified virtual inverted
image (I2).
• L – Optical tube length http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RKA8_mif6-E

Magnification of Compound
Microscope
Magnification by the objective m0 = s’1/s1
Since s’1  L and s1  f0, therefore
magnification of objective mo  L/fo
Magnification of eyepiece me = 25/fe

Can you tell the difference between
magnification and resolution?

Resolution of an Optical Microscope –
Physical Limit
Owing to diffraction, the
image of a point is no
longer a point but an
airy disc after passing
through a lens with
finite aperture!
The disc images
(diffraction patterns) of
two adjacent points may
overlap if the two points
are close together.
The two points can no
longer be distinguished
if the discs overlap too
much
Resolution of Microscope –
Rayleigh Criteria
Rayleigh Criteria: Angular separation
 of the two points is such that the
central maximum of one image falls
on the first diffraction minimum of
the other
 =qm  1.22/d

Resolution of Microscope – in
terms of Linear separation



To express the resolution in
terms of a linear separation r,
have to consider the Abbe’s
theory
Path difference between the
two beams passing the two
slits is d sin i  d sin a  

are just collected by the
objective, then i = a and




If the space between the specimen and the
objective is filled with a medium of refractive index
n, then wavelength in medium n = /n
The dmin = /2n sina = /2(N.A.)
For circular aperture
dmin= 1.22/2(N.A.)=0.61/(N.A.)
where N.A. = n sina is called numerical aperture

Optical Aberrations
Reduce the resolution of microscope
Aberration in optical systems (lenses intended to produce a
sharp image) generally leads to blurring of the image. It
occurs when light from one point of an object after transmission
through the system does not converge into a single point.
Two primary causes of non-ideal lens action:
• Spherical (geometrical) aberration – related to the
spherical nature of the lens
• Chromatic aberration – arise from variations in the
refractive indices of the wide range of frequencies in
visible light
Astigmatism, field curvature and comatic aberrations
are easily corrected with proper lens fabrication.

Spherical Aberration –
Peripheral rays and axial
rays have different focal
points (caused by spherical
shape of the lens surfaces).
causes the image to appear
hazy or blurred and slightly
out of focus.
very important in terms of
the resolution of the lens
because it affects the
coincident imaging of points
along the optical axis and
degrade the performance of
the lens.
http://micro.magnet.fsu.edu/primer/java/aberrations/spherical/index.html
Defects in Lens
 Chromatic Aberration


Axial - Blue light is refracted to
the greatest extent followed by
green and red light, a
phenomenon commonly referred
to as dispersion
Lateral - chromatic difference of
magnification: the blue image of a
detail was slightly larger than the
green image or the red image in
white light, thus causing color
ringing of specimen details at the
outer regions of the field of view
A converging lens can be combined
with a weaker diverging lens, so that
the chromatic aberrations cancel for
certain wavelengths:
The combination – achromatic doublet
weaker diverging lens

Defects in Lens


Astigmatism - The
off-axis image of a
specimen point
appears as a disc or
blurred lines instead
of a point.
Depending on the
angle of the off-axis
rays entering the o
lens, the line image
may be oriented
either tangentially
or radially

Curvature of Field
- When visible light
is focused through a
curved lens, the
image plane
produced by the lens
will be curved
The image appears
sharp and crisp
either in the center
or on the edges of
the viewfield but not
both

Defects in Lens

Coma - Comatic
aberrations are
similar to spherical
aberrations, but they
are mainly
encountered with offaxis objects and are
most severe when the
microscope is out of
alignment.
Coma causes the image of a non-axial point to be reproduced
as an elongated comet shape, lying in a direction
perpendicular to the optical axis.
