Nikon
The lab currently has 3 Nikon Microscopes (Microscopes #2, #3 & #4). These are located in bays 6 and 7.
The scopes are connected to computers via Jenoptik ProgRes software which allows users to digitally capture images through the microscope and make calibrated measurements.
Microscope #2: (Bay 7)
- Trinocular: Ocular Binoc. + Camera (Simultaneous)
- ProgRes video/photo capture & measurement
- Objectives: 5x, 10x, 20x, 50x, 100x, 150x
- Filters: Green, ND
- Bright/Dark Field
- Differential Interference Contrast (DIC/Nomarski)
- The DIC prism is installed on each objective and can't be removed, so even regular microscope images suffer from a slight double-image
- Top Illumination
Microscope #3: Eclipse Nikon L200D (Bay 6)
- Manual for Nikon Eclipse L200D
- Trinocular: Binoc. + Camera (Mutually Exclusive)
- ProgRes video/photo capture & measurement
- Objectives: 5x, 10x, 20x, 50x, 100x, 150x
- Filters: Green, ND
- Bright/Dark Field
- Differential Interference Contrast (DIC/Nomarski)
- Top Illumination
Microscope #4: (Bay 6)
- Trinocular: Binoc. + Camera (Mutually Exclusive)
- ProgRes video/photo capture & measurement
- Objectives: 5x, 10x, 20x, 50x, 100x, 150x
- Filters: Green, ND
- Bright/Dark Field
- Differential Interference Contrast (DIC/Nomarski)
- Top/Bottom Illumination
Olympus
Microscope #1: Olympus Optiphot-2 (Bay 3)
- To be added
Fluorescence Microscope: Olympus MX51 (Bay 6)
- See the wiki page for the Olympus MX51
- Trinocular: Binoc. + Camera (Mutually Exclusive)
- Native photo/video capture & calibrated measurement
- Objectives: 5x, 10x, 20x, 50x, 100x, 150x
- Filters: Green, ND
- Bright/Dark Field
- Differential Interference Contrast (DIC/Nomarski)
- Top/Bottom Illumination
- Three Fluorescence Filters
DUV Microscope: Olympus MX61A-DUV (Bay 7)
Motorized Stage/Turret, Software control with Calibrated measurements, Deep-UV Light source+Camera for DUV-100x high res. imaging/measurement.
Olympus LEXT Confocal Microscope
YOU ARE REQUIRED TO GET TRAINED on this tool before you are allowed to use it! Please contact the Tool Owner to get training.
The LEXT has a motorized stage, image stitching capabilities and some image measurement capabilities, in addition to the primary topographical measurement capabilities afforded by the laser-scanning confocal microscopy function.
See the main tool page for more info: Laser Scanning Confocal M-scope (Olympus LEXT)
