An application of frustrated TIR act as locations where Total internal reflection fluorescence (TIRF) microscopyOnly objects within ~100 nm of the interface are illuminated. conventional fluorescence microscope image is blurred due to fluorescence from out-of-focus sources TIRF image is sharper Frustrated Total Internal Reflection (TIR)By placing another surface in contact with a totally internallyreflecting one, total internal reflection can be “frustrated.” nn Total internal reflection nntotal internal reflectionInteresting question: How close do the prisms have to be before TIR is frustrated? Answer: pretty close, but NOT touching!The quantity tells us how far the evanescent wave extends beyond the be in order to frustrate the TIR.
