3. Attaching the lambda plate slider for the diascopic illumination
To perform the sensitive color polarization microscopy under the diascopic illumination or the
sensitive color DIC microscopy under the diascopic illumination, attach the lambda plate (LV-LP
lambda plate) to the special slot on the nosepiece. The lambda plate is also called "wave plate" and
improves the color contrast to perform the sensitive color polarization microscopy or the sensitive
color DIC microscopy. Attach the lambda plate according to the following procedure.
1 Loosen the limiter screw with the hexagonal
screwdriver provided with the microscope.
2 Insert the lambda plate into the slot.
3 Tighten the limiter screw of the nosepiece so
that it is inserted into the groove to prevent
inadvertent disconnection of the lambda plate.
To remove the lambda plate from the nosepiece,
loosen the slider limiter screw sufficiently with the
hexagonal screwdriver and pull out the lambda plate.
To use the episcopic illumination, attach the lambda plate to the epi illuminator, For details, see Page 83.
