-
A.
Zernike phase-contrast method
The Zernike phase-contrast method is a microscopy technique that converts phase shifts in light passing through transparent specimens into intensity differences, enabling detailed visualization of living cells and other unstained samples.
-
B.
Kirchhoff diffraction theory
Kirchhoff diffraction theory is a classical wave optics framework that models light propagation and diffraction by treating wavefronts as superpositions of secondary spherical waves emitted from an aperture.
-
C.
Babinet's principle
Babinet's principle is a fundamental concept in wave optics stating that the diffraction pattern from an opaque object is identical to that from a complementary aperture of the same shape, apart from the overall intensity.
-
D.
Rayleigh–Sommerfeld diffraction theory
Rayleigh–Sommerfeld diffraction theory is a more rigorous scalar diffraction formulation that corrects limitations in Kirchhoff’s approach by using boundary conditions consistent with the wave equation.
-
E.
Abbe diffraction limit
chosen
The Abbe diffraction limit is a fundamental principle in optics that defines the smallest detail that can be resolved by an imaging system due to the wave nature of light, setting a lower bound on achievable resolution.
- F. None of above.
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
Provenance (3 batches)
The batch behind each pipeline step, in order, with when it ran. Timestamps are batch-level — stages were processed in waves, so the object chain (NER → NED1 → NEDg → NED2) reads in order, but predicate / elicitation batches can sit in a different wave.
