Phase Contrast Microscopy. The human eye can perceive changes in light amplitude (intensity). Unstained biological specimens such as living cells are essentially transparent to our eyes but they interact with light in a fairly uniform way by retarding (slowing) the passage of a light beam by approximately 1/4 of a wavelength ().
