One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Principles of optical microscopy

Principles of optical microscopy focus on how visible light and lenses are used to form and magnify images of microstructural features in engineering materials. For examination purposes, you must master illumination, magnification, resolution, contrast, focusing, and the role of microscope components, because these ideas explain both correct specimen observation and the limits of what an optical microscope can…
