Key Features
- Orthoscopic and connecopic observation: Easily switch between glass morphology and interference figure analysis
- Rotating circular stage: 360° rotation with centering, ideal for mineral and fiber orientation studies
- Dye plates / compensators: Includes λ (full wave), 1/4λ, retarders for birefringence analysis
- Polarizer and analyzer: Cross-polarization system for optical mineralogy, fibers, and stress analysis
- Robust construction, precise mechanics and strainless optics for accurate results
Orthoscopic and connoscopic polarizing microscope with rotating stages and dye plates
A versatile polarizing microscope designed for advanced optical analysis in geology, mineralogy, and materials science. Equipped with a rotating circular stage, dye plates (retarders), and orthoscopic/conoscopic modes, this instrument enables accurate study of birefringence, interference figures, and crystal orientation.
Applications
- Geology and petrology: Identify minerals, extinction angles, and interference colors
- Optical mineralogy: Observe connoscopic interference figures using the Bertrand lens and dye plates
- Materials and ceramics: Analyze stress, birefringence, and crystal structures
- Fiber and polymer analysis: Use retarders to measure optical properties in fibers and plastics
