This is description of this part:
Auxiliary microscope for adjusting DIC prisms in the condenser of the PZO KPI-2 microscope.
Manufacturer: PZO
Mounting diameter: 23.2 mm
This telescopic eyepiece contains two lines in the field of view used for adjusting DIC interference fringes, but this is the only difference compared to an otherwise identical eyepiece used for adjusting phase contrast. Therefore it can be used:
- for adjusting DIC
- for adjusting phase contrast
- for observing the iris diaphragm
- for observing the filament when setting illumination according to the Köhler standard
This is one of those microscope elements for which many different names are used. Among others:
- phase telescope
- phase contrast telescope
- phase alignment telescope
- phase adjustment telescope
- phase centering telescope
- phase contrast centering telescope
- phase contrast alignment telescope
- phase contrast adjustment telescope
- centering telescope
- condenser centering telescope
- condenser alignment telescope
- condenser adjustment telescope
- alignment telescope
- adjustment telescope
- inspection telescope
- aperture viewing telescope
- back focal plane viewing telescope
- auxiliary microscope
- phase contrast auxiliary microscope
