My thanks go to Eberhard Raap (D), Gunther Chmela (D) and Klaus D. Kemp (GB) for providing me with some arranged and strewn slides of diatoms and foraminifera.

I am grateful to my father not only for recording and providing me with the two epi-photographs of an alum crystallization taken in incident light (epi- bright- and darkfield) and their superimposition to a digital sandwich (shown in the collection of supplementary images), but also for his advice and support in preparing various articles for publication in microscopy journals (see section “Personal publications”).

I would also like to express my thanks to Dipl. Phys. Dr. Hans-Jochen Strauß, patent attorney in Gütersloh (D), for filing the patent applications for my inventions (VBDC, VPDC, VPBC, application nos.: 10 2011 002 030.6; 10 2011 054 106.3; 10 2012 005 911.6).

My thanks go also to Mrs. Linda Tennant (GB) for liguistic revising my english manuscripts.
