Introduction
A Polarizing Light Microscope is used to study anisotropic materials—those that are transparent or opaque—with birefringence. Materials exhibiting birefringence can be clearly distinguished under a polarizing microscope. While such substances may also be observed using staining methods, some require the use of a polarizing microscope. A reflected polarizing microscope is an essential tool for investigating and identifying birefringent materials by exploiting the polarization properties of light.
Key Features of the PLM100 Series Polarizing Microscope System:
- Optional standard or long working distance objectives;
- Imaging optical path: 1X (tube lens focal length of 180mm), with customizable reduction lenses for various magnifications;
- Image plane size: 25mm;
- Spectral range of the optical path: visible light;
- Camera interface options: C/M42/M52, etc. (optional);
- Illumination options: critical illumination / Köhler illumination (optional);
- Light source options: 10W white/blue LED illumination (optional);
