  • Page 6: Purposes

    1. Purposes This transmitting polarizing microscope is designed on the basis of biological microscope ,use the polarization of light to make microscopic observation for double refraction material. It is widely used in geology, chemical industry ,metallurgy, semiconductor, petroleum, spinning field etc, also play important role in biological, phytology, pharmacology, pathology field etc.

    3.1.8 Please connect main body with power line if in detachable power supply. ▲Make sure all items taken out before deposal packing case. ▲Nosepiece should be rotate by wrenching the outer gear rim. ▲handle gently during installation, especially don’t touch lens. ▲For the protection of the environment, please properly handle the microscope packing waste.
  • Page 9 b. Put the up analyzer in good position and rotate to 0°,then analyzer and polarizer should in orthogonal position, field will become more darker from objective, otherwise should adjust the analyzer. You can determine mineral slice sample’s interference colors order, birefringence ,extinction type, extinction angle, elongation sign etc through orthogonal polarizing angle , Also can judge whether it’s crystal twin mineral.
  • Page 10: Use Of Tension Adjusting Handle

    Conoscopic observation usually with high power objective and can clearly see the amplified interference pattern, confirm its axis and slice direction, determine mineral’s light symbol and axis angle (biaxial crystal). ▲Don’t reverse the direction forcefully for left and right coarse & fine focusing knobs at the same time ,otherwise will damage focusing unit.
