UIS2 Optics Provide Outstanding Expandability

Maximizing the advantages of infinity correction, the UIS2 optical system helps prevent the deterioration of optical microscope performance and eliminates magnification factors, even when polarizing elements, like analyzers, tint plates, or compensators, are introduced into the light path. The BX53-P microscope also accepts intermediate attachments available for BX3 series microscopes, as well as cameras and imaging systems.

An Extensive Range of Compensators and Wave Plates

Six different compensators are available for measurements of birefringence in rock and mineral thin sections. Measurement retardation level ranges from 0 to 20λ. For easier measurement and high image contrast, Berek and Senarmont
compensators can be used, which change the retardation level in the entire field of view.
 

Robust and Accurate Rotating Stage

The rotating-centering mechanism attached to the rotary stage  enables smooth rotation of a specimen. In addition, there is a click-stop mechanism at each 45 degrees for precise measurement. With the optional dual-mechanical stage, discreet X-Y movement is possible.
