  Olympus FluoView Resource Center: Glossary of Terms in Confocal Microscopy
Hot mirrors can be designed to be inserted into the optical system at an incidence angle varying between zero and 45 degrees, and are useful in a variety of applications where heat build-up can damage components or adversely affect spectral characteristics of the illumination source.
Mirror Image Rule - The fluorescence emission spectrum is usually a mirror image of the excitation spectrum when plotted as a function of relative intensity versus wavenumber (as opposed to wavelength).
In dichromatic mirrors, the surface flatness is determined by the wavefront distortion of light reflected from the front (reflecting) surface.

For this reason, emission is the mirror image of the ground state to lowest excited state transitions, but not of the entire absorption spectrum, which may include transitions to higher energy levels.
An excellent test of the mirror image rule is to examine absorption and emission spectra in a linear plot of the wavenumber (the reciprocal of wavelength or the number of waves per centimeter), which is directly proportional to the frequency and quantum energy.
Quinine does not adhere to the mirror image rule as is evident by inspecting the single peak in the emission spectrum (at 460 nanometers), which does not mirror the two peaks at 310 and 350 nanometers featured in the bimodal absorption spectrum.

 Mirror image rule - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the law of contracts, the mirror image rule states that an offer must be accepted exactly without modifications.
An attempt to accept the offer on different terms instead creates a counter-offer - which constitutes a rejection of the original offer.
In the United States, this rule has been altered with respect to merchants dealing under the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC Section 2-207).

Common law rule: Mirror-image rule says we don't have a meeting of the minds, there's no contract when dissimilar forms are exchanged.
The other thing is that this rule is drafted somewhat poorly in several respects, courts are still trying to sort it out.

According to the "Mirror Image" rule, which taken literally, does not leave much space for the parties to dance, an offer must be answered with an acceptance that was absolutely and unequivocally identical on all counts to the offer.
Under the pattern of the "Mirror Image" rule, common law demanded strict evidence of contractual agreement before imposing a binding transfer on the parties.
UCC ß2-207 was conceived to solve problems arising from the common law "Mirror Image" rule by allowing the exchange of non-identical forms to establish a contract under most circumstances.

The court, in answering this question, analyzed to what extent the parties had an agreement based on the written terms of the negotiated contract, even though not all of the terms of the contract were agreed upon.
Traditionally, courts have used the "mirror rule," that is, that the accepting party had to accept the mirror image of what the offering party was willing to provide.
The Hill's Pet court indicated that parties who have ongoing business relations, such as those who have begun performance on a contract still being negotiated, can establish a contract even when they have not been able to agree on all the terms, or when the "mirror image rule" would not be satisfied.

Under this approach, an acknowledgment is treated as an acceptance of the offer, unless it specifically conditions acceptance upon its own terms, even though it is not a mirror image of the original offer.
The chief innovation of 2-207 is not its change in the mirror-image rule, but its abandonment of the very principle of a formal rule of offer and acceptance.
  Although this is inconsistent with the traditional mirror image rule, it represents the same kind of attempts at mitigation made by courts applying equitable principles to alleviate the rule’s harshness.

 Charles Sukurs - Harmonizing the Battle of the Forms
The rationale of the mirror-image rule is based on an expectation that the original offeror, making an offer according to his own terms, cannot anticipate being bound on terms other than those that he presented.
[90]  It does so for a number of reasons.  The first is that the mirror image rule is consistent with both common law and civil law systems, so that the CISG is broadly in line with the many different legal traditions that it attempts to accommodate.
Section 2 of Article 19 attempts to mitigate the severity of the mirror image rule by allowing for non-material terms to remain in a contract.

 Acceptance
Although revocation and rejection of an offer are effective when received, the general rule is that a contract is made when the acceptance is dispatched, even though the letter of acceptance is lost and never reaches the offeror.
This was known as the "Mirror Image Rule." The underlying rationale is that the making of a counteroffer communicates to the offeror that the offeree does not wish to accept the offer.
UCC 2-207 was intended to alter the "Mirror Image Rule" of the common law.

Court rules that a jury would have to objectively review their conversation and decide what each of the parties meant.
Majority rule set forth in Drennan is that if revocation doesn’t come until after offeree has made a bid based on your estimate, it is an irrevocable offer.
In the absence of reason to know or unconscionability, the rule is that you live with your mistake.

 John E. Murray, Jr.
The common law "mirror image" rule requires the acceptance to match the terms of the offer.
states the general rule that additional terms are construed as 'proposals for addition to the contract' except in the case of contracts between merchants where certain conditional terms may become part of the contract.
To understand the operation of counteroffers under section 2-207, it is important to remember that the fundamental change effected by 2-207 was to reject the common law principle that a variant term in an otherwise definite expression of acceptance converts the response to a counteroffer.

at early common law, no. there was no mirror image, no meeting of the minds, no agreement.
But that's ridiculous--the parties behaved like there was a K. They should be held to it, whatever it was.
The mirror image rule gave supremacy to the last shot--every new form was a new offer, and acting like there was a K meant you accepted the new terms.

 MY NOTES
Common law mirror image rule - the acceptance needs to be like a "mirror image" to the offer, otherwise there is not a valid contract; only used during formation
Under the UCC, 2207, "a written confirmation operates as an acceptance even though it states terms additional" unless several factors are met
knock out rule - a way of handling different terms between the offer an acceptance of a contract.
