microscope combined with a pair of polarising filters
and other accessories. This combination is made in
order to observe the optical properties of double
refracting materials such as crystals.
The polarising microscope was originally developed for
investigating crystalline structures within rocks and
minerals. However, this microscope has now come to
be used for research and examinations in medical and
biological fields, as well as in such industrial fields as
abestos identification chemicals, fibres, materials,
electronics, and forensics Improved performance of
the polarising microscope combined with a full line of
accessories has made it possible to perform operations
such as detecting minute double refracting materials
and measuring retardation. These operations were
previously not possible with simple polarising
microscopes.
The Applications of Polarising Microscopy explains
and provides many examples of how polarising
microscopes are currently being used in various fields.
In order for the polarising microscope to be easily
comprehended by all users, explanations have been
made as simple as possible. We hope that this manual
will be a valuable source of information both for firsttime
users, as well as those already using the
polarising microscope.详细>
