Optical Microscopy
LMCC has a range of optical microscopy techniques available.
Optical is a microscopy technique in which light is directed at the specimen of interest. The lights path heavily affects the image collected, this can be used to our benefit to produce a range of imaging techniques such as polarised light or Differential Interference Contrast (DIC).
Typical industrial uses
- Surface structure
- Paint defects
- Particle size analysis
- Thickness measurements of layers
- Failure analysis
Key Capabilities
- Bright Field Imaging (BF)
- Dark Field Imaging (DF)
- Polarised Light
- DIfferential Interferance Contrast (DIC)
- Heating Stage
