Abstract
A coherent detection system using a two-mode optical fibre is describe d which permits confocal, differential amplitude contrast and differen tial phase contrast images to be obtained simultaneously from a scanni ng optical microscope. The direction of differentiation may be chosen arbitrarily. The differential imaging modes possess an optical section ing property.
