Adapters for compatibility between different sizes and orientation are available. The outer contact of the connector is the negative terminal while the central contact inside the barrel is positive. The DC barrel connector is used in several DC power applications including switches, routers, and laptops.

Annular dark-field imaging requires one to form images with electrons diffracted into an annular aperture centered on, but not including, the unscattered beam. For large scattering angles in a scanning transmission electron microscope, this is sometimes called Z-contrast imaging because of the enhanced scattering from high-atomic-number atoms.

Most small RF and network devices such as cameras, switches, and access points run on small Direct Current (DC) power, as low as 5 Volts to as high as 24 volts. To feed power to such devices from the mains which depending on the region can range between 100 Volts AC and 250 Volts AC, an AC/DC power supply is needed.

Briefly, imaging[5] involves tilting the incident illumination until a diffracted, rather than the incident, beam passes through a small objective aperture in the objective lens back focal plane. Dark-field images, under these conditions, allow one to map the diffracted intensity coming from a single collection of diffracting planes as a function of projected position on the specimen and as a function of specimen tilt.

Weak-beam imaging involves optics similar to conventional dark-field, but uses a diffracted beam harmonic rather than the diffracted beam itself. In this way, much higher resolution of strained regions around defects can be obtained.

When coupled to hyperspectral imaging, dark-field microscopy becomes a powerful tool for the characterization of nanomaterials embedded in cells. In a recent publication, Patskovsky et al. used this technique to study the attachment of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) targeting CD44+ cancer cells.[4]

While the dark-field image may first appear to be a negative of the bright-field image, different effects are visible in each. In bright-field microscopy, features are visible where either a shadow is cast on the surface by the incident light or a part of the surface is less reflective, possibly by the presence of pits or scratches. Raised features that are too smooth to cast shadows will not appear in bright-field images, but the light that reflects off the sides of the feature will be visible in the dark-field images.

AC/DC power supplies step down the AC 110 voltage to the required DC low-voltage level and converts it from alternating current to direct current. Stepping down the voltage can be done using a transformer, but with modern switching mode power supplies, inductors and semiconductor devices efficiently do the job. Conversion from AC to DC is done by a diode rectifier. Rectified current is filtered through one or two passes to refine its waveform.

Common power supplies for RF and network devices are rated at 12V, 18V and 24 V. 5 Volt devices are usually fed by USB power adapters. AC input cables vary from fixed to removable power cables. The DC output is commonly terminated to a male DC Barrel connector jack.

This a mathematical technique intermediate between direct and reciprocal (Fourier-transform) space for exploring images with well-defined periodicities, like electron microscope lattice-fringe images. As with analog dark-field imaging in a transmission electron microscope, it allows one to "light up" those objects in the field of view where periodicities of interest reside. Unlike analog dark-field imaging it may also allow one to map the Fourier-phase of periodicities, and hence phase gradients, which provide quantitative information on vector lattice strain.

Dark-field microscopy (also called dark-ground microscopy) describes microscopy methods, in both light and electron microscopy, which exclude the unscattered beam from the image. Consequently, the field around the specimen (i.e., where there is no specimen to scatter the beam) is generally dark.

The interpretation of dark-field images must be done with great care, as common dark features of bright-field microscopy images may be invisible, and vice versa. In general the dark-field image lacks the low spatial frequencies associated with the bright-field image, making the image a high-passed version of the underlying structure.

Dark-field microscopy techniques are almost entirely free of halo or relief-style artifacts typical of differential interference contrast microscopy. This comes at the expense of sensitivity to phase information.

The final stage in the power supply output is precautionary: a voltage regulator may be added to ensure correct output voltage at all time, a reverse polarity protection circuit may be included to protect both the output device and the power supply from reverse polarity and short connection.

In optical microscopes a darkfield condenser lens must be used, which directs a cone of light away from the objective lens. To maximize the scattered light-gathering power of the objective lens, oil immersion is used and the numerical aperture (NA) of the objective lens must be less than 1.0. Objective lenses with a higher NA can be used but only if they have an adjustable diaphragm, which reduces the NA. Often these objective lenses have a NA that is variable from 0.7 to 1.25.[1]

In single-crystal specimens, single-reflection dark-field images of a specimen tilted just off the Bragg condition allow one to "light up" only those lattice defects, like dislocations or precipitates, that bend a single set of lattice planes in their neighborhood. Analysis of intensities in such images may then be used to estimate the amount of that bending. In polycrystalline specimens, on the other hand, dark-field images serve to light up only that subset of crystals that are Bragg-reflecting at a given orientation.

Dark-field microscopy is a very simple yet effective technique and well suited for uses involving live and unstained biological samples, such as a smear from a tissue culture or individual, water-borne, single-celled organisms. Considering the simplicity of the setup, the quality of images obtained from this technique is impressive.

One limitation of dark-field microscopy is the low light levels seen in the final image. This means that the sample must be very strongly illuminated, which can cause damage to the sample.

Most small RF and network devices such as cameras, switches, and access points run on small Direct Current (DC) power, as low as 5 Volts to as high as 24 volts. To feed power to such devices from the mains which depending on the region can range between 100 Volts AC and 250 Volts AC, an AC/DC power supply is needed.

In optical microscopy, dark-field describes an illumination technique used to enhance the contrast in unstained samples. It works by illuminating the sample with light that will not be collected by the objective lens and thus will not form part of the image. This produces the classic appearance of a dark, almost black, background with bright objects on it. Optical dark fields usually done with an condenser that features a central light-stop in front of the light source to prevent direct illumination of the focal plane, and at higher numerical apertures may require oil or water between the condenser and the specimen slide to provide an optimal refractive index.[2][3]

Dark-field studies in transmission electron microscopy play a powerful role in the study of crystals and crystal defects, as well as in the imaging of individual atoms.

Dark-field microscopy has recently been applied in computer mouse pointing devices to allow the mouse to work on transparent glass by imaging microscopic flaws and dust on the glass's surface.
