Abstract
SUMMARY: High‐quality high‐resolution transmission and reflection images produced using a scanning optical microscope and the split‐detector technique are presented. These images exhibit differential phase contrast, the method avoiding some drawbacks of the usual Nomarski DIC arrangement. Imaging is treated theoretically and compared with the Nomarski method.Keywords
