  13. Optical microscopy CONTRAST IN THE REFLECTED LIGHT MICROSCOPE 1. Different phases may be delineated due to differences in reflectivity. Reflectivity varies with wavelength, so contrast may be changed through insertion of a filter. 2. Crystals of different orientations are etched at different rates. Results in contrast due to ledges formed at grain boundaries. 3. Etchants frequently attack grain boundaries preferentially leading to grain boundary grooving.

  14. Optical microscopy CONTRAST IN THE REFLECTED LIGHT MICROSCOPE 4. Etchants may facet the grains. The faceting is different for differently oriented grains. 5. Etchants often attack different phases at different rates. Leads to surface relief. 6. Some etchants stain the sample surface so that differently oriented grains and different phases take on varied colors.
