Selected Literature References

Section Overview:

The subject of microscope objective lenses has been reviewed on numerous occasions by a number of distinguished scientists. Many references are comprehensive and cover a majority of topics concerning the structure and function of objectives, while others concentrate on various aspects and specialized applications of these lenses. The list of reference materials provided in this section attempts to cover both early reviews and the latest information available on microscope objectives.
