Low-Coherence Reflectometry for Refractive Index Measurements of Cells in Micro-Capillaries

Low-Coherence Reflectometry for Refractive Index Measurements of Cells in Micro-Capillaries

The refractive index of cells provides insights into their composition, organization and function. Moreover, a good knowledge of the cell refractive index would allow an improvement of optical cytometric and diagnostic systems. Although interferometric techniques undoubtedly represent a good solutio...
