Optical Microscope

Description

The Olympus BX60M optical microscope provides magnification ranging from 5× to 100× and supports digital image acquisition with post-processing capabilities. It is equipped for both polarized light microscopy and Nomarski interference contrast microscopy, which enhances visualization by comparing differences in optical path lengths. This allows for imaging of features that are otherwise difficult to see, making it especially useful for examining unstained biological samples and detecting defects in thin semiconductor materials. The system also supports real-time observation during analysis.

Capabilities

• Objective lenses (5×–100×) – Provide a range of magnification options for different sample resolutions 
• Nomarski (DIC) prism slider – Enhances contrast to visualize transparent or low-contrast features 
• Polarizer and analyzer sliders – Enable polarized light microscopy for studying material properties 
• Specialized filters (U-LBD-2, U-DND-2) – Improve image clarity and reduce glare 
• Bright field and dark field modes – Allow flexibility in illumination techniques for different samples 
• Green light / glare filtering – Reduces eye strain and improves contrast 
• Non-destructive analysis – Preserves sample integrity during observation 
• Live-time observation – Enables real-time monitoring of samples 
• Digital image capture and analysis tools – Support documentation and post-processing of results
