Laboratory Polarising Microscope
Product Code : JA-M-996
The Laboratory Polarising Microscope (SKU JA-M-996) is a monocular microscope for studying minerals, rocks and crystals under polarised light. Its 130 mm circular stage rotates through 360 degrees and is graduated in 5-degree steps, so extinction angles and optical changes can be followed as the specimen turns. P4x, P10x and P40x SL objectives are listed with cross-line and micrometer eyepieces. Geology and chemistry departments use this laboratory polarising microscope for thin section and crystal practicals.
Specifications
The product data gives a monocular inclinable body with graduated coarse and fine focusing knobs, a 130 mm circular rotatable stage graduated through 360 degrees in 5-degree steps, P4x, P10x and P40x SL objectives, and WF10x, H5x with cross and H10x micrometer eyepieces.

Applications of the laboratory polarising microscope
In a teaching laboratory it is used to identify minerals in rock thin sections from their optical behaviour as the stage rotates, to study crystals grown in chemistry practicals, and to measure grain sizes with the micrometer eyepiece.
