Difference between Nomarski prism and Polarizer

Nomarski prism vs. Polarizer

A Nomarski prism is a modification of the Wollaston prism that is used in differential interference contrast microscopy. A polarizer or polariser is an optical filter that lets light waves of a specific polarization pass through while blocking light waves of other polarizations.

Similarities between Nomarski prism and Polarizer

Nomarski prism and Polarizer have 11 things in common (in Unionpedia): Birefringence, Calcite, Canada balsam, Differential interference contrast microscopy, Glan–Foucault prism, Glan–Thompson prism, Nicol prism, Quartz, Rochon prism, Sénarmont prism, Wollaston prism.

Birefringence

Birefringence is the optical property of a material having a refractive index that depends on the polarization and propagation direction of light.

Differential interference contrast microscopy

Differential interference contrast (DIC) microscopy, also known as Nomarski interference contrast (NIC) or Nomarski microscopy, is an optical microscopy technique used to enhance the contrast in unstained, transparent samples.

Quartz

Quartz is a mineral composed of silicon and oxygen atoms in a continuous framework of SiO4 silicon–oxygen tetrahedra, with each oxygen being shared between two tetrahedra, giving an overall chemical formula of SiO2.
