| Zusammenfassung: | This invention relates to imaging techniques in conjunction with total internal reflection at the boundary of an optically transparent material and more particularly to the use of such techniques for detecting the presence, composition, quantity, and spatial distribution of substances on optically transparent substrates.
Imaging apparatus and method which uses change of polarization state of a light beam passed through a total internal reflection structure by a single reflection at a TIR surface in which a specimen is placed in the evanescent field associated with the total internal reflection of the light beam, the specimen being the subject of biological, chemical or genetic investigation. |
