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

What is Dark field microscope?

A Dark Field microscope is one that has a special condensor (light source) that illuminates the specimen in such a way as to enhance the contrast even if it is unstained. When you look at a specimen in a dark field scope, it looks bright, but it is visible against a black background -- the 'dark field.'

What are the differences between dark field and light field microscopy techniques?

Dark field microscopy illuminates the specimen from the side, causing light to scatter off the specimen and appear bright against a dark background. Light field microscopy illuminates the specimen from below, causing light to pass through the specimen and appear dark against a bright background.

What type of microscopy is the negative stain similar to?

Negative stain microscopy is similar to bright-field microscopy in terms of creating contrast between the specimen and the background, but it uses an opposite staining technique. Instead of staining the specimen, negative staining stains the background, leaving the specimen unstained and appearing as a bright object against a dark background.
