| 1. | Microscope objectives are characterized by two parameters : magnification and numerical aperture.
|
| 2. | Commonly, a microscope objective is used to collect the object wave front.
|
| 3. | Microscope objectives are characterized by two parameters, namely, magnification and numerical aperture.
|
| 4. | If a slightly lower optical resolution is acceptable, the microscope objective may be entirely removed.
|
| 5. | Simulations show that such aberration-free designs are applicable to high-numerical aperture lenses such as flat microscope objectives.
|
| 6. | PSF Lab can also simulate microscope objectives that are corrected for certain refractive indices and cover slip thicknesses ( design parameters ).
|
| 7. | This new type of glass made possible a new class of microscope objective, the apochromatic ( often abbreviated'apo').
|
| 8. | Typical biological microscope objectives are designed for use with No . 1.5 cover slips ( 0.17 mm thickness ).
|
| 9. | Similar to microscope objectives, they provide magnifications of 4X-10X and 2X-6X respectively when mounted on the FD Auto Bellows.
|
| 10. | However, as the microscope objective is only used to collect light and not to form an image, it may be replaced by a simple lens.
