Abstract
THIS note describes a simple optical microscope shadow technique which permits measurement to be made of the heights of small objects such as particles, spores, steps on surfaces, etc., and also reveals qualitative surface topographical features in a striking manner. This is an optical analogy to the familiar metallic shadow-casting method which is used with electron microscopes. I have used it with powers up to that of a 4-mm. objective.
