Overview
The Olympus BX53-P research-grade professional polarizing microscope provides distinct polarized-light images and is an ideal choice for geologists.
Key Features
Clear images with UIS2 objectives. ACHN-P and UPLFLN-P polarization objectives minimize optical distortion. UPLFLN-P also supports differential interference and fluorescence including UV excitation, for diverse research/inspection including polarization. EF compares parallel- and crossed-Nicol brightness: higher EF means less optical distortion and better polarization performance. Example images: plagioclase zoning in quartz diorite; liquid-crystal MBBA (methoxy amino-biphenyl butylaniline, as named in the source). UPLFLN-P specifications, model / numerical aperture N.A. / working distance W.D.: UPLFLN4XP / 0.13 / 17.0mm; UPLFLN10XP / 0.3 / 10.0mm; UPLFLN20XP / 0.5 / 2.1mm; UPLFLN40XP / 0.75 / 0.51mm. UPLFLN-P series: UPLFLN100XOP / 1.3 / 0.2mm. ACHN-P specifications: ACHN10xP / 0.25 / 6.0mm; ACHN20xP / 0.40 / 3.0mm; ACHN40xP / 0.65 / 0.45mm. ACHN-P series: ACHN100xOP / 1.25 / 0.13mm. Excellent operation/optics: ergonomic Y-frame improves comfort and efficiency and reduces long-viewing fatigue. Field number 22 widens coverage by 21% versus conventional 20; bright 12 V, 100 W halogen illumination produces vivid polarization images. Efficient polarization stage: rotating stage with rotation-center output mechanism permits smooth movement and 45° detents; an attached mechanical stage controls fine sample motion. Rotating stage; mechanical stage. Advanced polarization accessories: redesigned condensers/polarizers provide high EF and high contrast. EF compares parallel/crossed Nicol brightness; higher values indicate less distortion and better polarization. Compensator retardation ranges and uses: U-CTB thick Berek, 0-11,000nm, large retardation (R*>3λ) in crystals, polymers, fibers and photoelastic distortion; U-CBE Berek, 0-1,640nm, retardation in crystals, polymers, fibers and biological tissues; U-CSE Senarmont, 0-546nm, retardation in crystals/tissues and tissue contrast enhancement; U-CBR1 Brace-Kohler 1/10λ, 0-55nm, small retardation in crystals/tissues; U-CBR2 Brace-Kohler 1/30λ, 0-20nm, tissue contrast enhancement; U-CWE2 quartz wedge, 500-2,200nm, approximate retardation in crystals/polymers. R denotes retardation. Use interference filter 45IF546 for higher accuracy, except U-CWE2. Clear orthoscopic/conoscopic images: simple switching and focusing; a Bertrand lens provides vivid conoscopic images even from small regions. Trinocular tubes accept digital cameras for recording/storage and inspection reports, selected for image quality, functions and ease. Olympus industrial-microscopy analysis software offers intuitive menus and advanced routines, with licensed analysis/management solutions for specific applications.
