Abstract
The theory of boundary waves (Young, Rubinowicz, and others) is developed for the two-dimensional case and applied to discuss image formation for small apertures, obstacles and phase-retarding laminae. The theoretical predictions are illustrated by diffraction photographs. It is hoped thus to contribute towards a fuller understanding of microscope images for bright-field, dark-field and phase-contrast conditions.
