Corrections | The Dispersion Staining Technique and Its Application to Measuring Refractive Indices of Non-opaque Materials, with Emphasis on Asbestos Analysis
CORRECTION
In the article “The Dispersion Staining Technique and Its Application to Measuring Refractive Indices of Non-opaque Materials, with Emphasis on Asbestos Analysis” by Shu-Chun Su (The Microscope Volume 69, Second Quarter 2022), the Figure 7 illustration on page 59 is an error and does not depict the “light path of the phase contrast microscope,” as stated in the caption. It is the light path of a darkfield microscope.
Also, “Table 5. λm and t to RI Conversion for Chrysotile in Cargille 1.550 (E)” on page 63 has incorrect temperature ranges for α and γ. Download/view the PDF of Table 5 with the corrected temperature ranges, 17° to 29° C.
The Microscope regrets the errors.
