The so-called lamina splendens of articular cartilage is shown to be a characteristic of phase contrast microscopy; this technique provides no evidence for an anatomically distinct surface layer. Fresnel diffraction occurs at edges separating regions of different refractive indices. These diffraction effects, when viewed under phase contrast, lead to the appearance of a bright line along the edge.
关节软骨所谓的亮层被证明是相差显微镜的一个特征；该技术没有提供解剖学上有明显区别的表层的证据。菲涅耳衍射发生在不同折射率区域的边缘。当在相差显微镜下观察时，这些衍射效应会导致边缘出现一条亮线。
