Definitions

  1. Fluorescence of a material when the source of stimulating radiation is behind the object,…

    Fluorescence of a material when the source of stimulating radiation is behind the object, from the point of view of the observer.

    • For example, in contrast to transfluorescence microscopes, the intensity of illumination and consequently the amount of excitation energy increases as a function of increasing magnification.
    • Likewise in fluorescence applications, an epifluorescence configuration is normally chosen over transfluorescence.
    • Epifluorescence involves illuminating the specimen from above while in transfluorescence the excitation light comes from below the sample [Weeks, 2004].
