A new method of specimen illumination for wide-field fluorescence microscopy has been presented. This method allows to excite the fluorescence in a thin near-surface layer of the studied object. As a result, the captured images have greater contrast and signal-to-background ratio in comparison with the epifluorescence ones. The long-range surface waves in one-dimensional photonic crystal have been used to localize the electromagnetic field exciting the fluorescence. An experimental setup has been created to excite the surface waves and obtain images of the objects from the near-surface layer. For an illustration of the possibilities of our method, we conducted several experiments with specimens that are typical for fluorescence microscopy, such as bacteria and eukaryotic cells.

Recent progress in the electron-mirror microscopy (EMM), e.g., an improvement of its resolving power together with an increase of the magnification makes it useful for investigating the ferroelectric domain physics. English has recently observed the domain texture in the surface layer of BaTiO3. The present authors ) have developed a theory by which one can evaluate small one-dimensional electric fields and/or topographic step heights in the crystal surfaces from their EMM pictures. This theory was applied to a quantitative study of the surface pattern of BaTiO3).
