The simple microscope has one lens and is used for basic microscopy, including in industries such as jewelry. Its design dates back to the 1600s and modern versions are handheld. It can produce surprisingly good image quality and is affordable for basic applications. A simple microscope is a microscope that has only one lens, as […]
A polarizing microscope, also known as a petrographic microscope, uses polarized light to study geological specimens and anisotropic materials. It has extra features such as polarizers, analyzers, and a Bertrand lens. Compensation and retard plates can also be used for better observation. A polarizing microscope is a microscope used primarily in geological studies to study […]
Metallurgical microscopes illuminate solid samples from above, allowing inspection and measurement. They can have color filters and connect to computers. Inverted metallurgical microscopes view samples from below and are used in various industries for quality control and analysis. A metallurgical microscope uses a different illumination method than a conventional microscope and can illuminate solid samples […]
A comparison microscope uses an optical bridge to view two samples simultaneously. It is important in forensics and ballistics analysis, allowing for the comparison of evidence. It has revolutionized many scientific disciplines and modern technologies have improved its capabilities. A comparison microscope consists of two separate microscopes connected to each other and is used to […]
