The JPL-1350 is a professional-grade polarized light microscope designed for educational, laboratory, and industrial use to analyze the optical properties of birefringent materials. It is frequently used for research in geology, pharmacology, and mineralogy to study crystals, fibers, and minerals.
Key Specifications
- Magnification: Standard range of 40x to 1000x.
- Objectives: Equipped with achromatic objectives, typically 4X, 10X, 40X(S), and 100X (S, Oil).
- Head Type: Available in binocular or trinocular configurations. The trinocular version is ideal for digital imaging and video capture.
- Stage: Features a 360° rotatable circular stage with graduation for precise angle measurements.
- Illumination: Typically uses a 6V 20W halogen lamp with adjustable brightness for transmitted light. Some models may feature LED illumination for longer life.
- Optical Components: Includes a rotatable polarizer, a retractable analyzer, and a substage condenser (N.A. 1.25).
Core Applications
- Geology & Mineralogy: Observing thin sections of rocks like basalt to identify minerals and measure extinction angles.
- Biological Research: Studying structured materials such as nerve fibers, muscle tissue, and tooth enamel.
- Industrial Testing: Analyzing polymer composites and other synthetic birefringent materials.
Detailed technical documents can be found through suppliers like GT Vision or Hinotek.
