  2. Relay lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relay_lens

    In optics, a relay lens is a lens or a group of lenses that receives the image from the objective lens and relays it to the eyepiece. Relay lenses are found in refracting telescopes , endoscopes , and periscopes to optically manipulate the light path , extend the length of the whole optical system , and usually serve the purpose of inverting ...

  3. Stereo microscope - Wikipedia

    A - Objective B - Galilean telescopes (rotating objectives) C - Zoom control D - Internal objective E - Prism F - Relay lens G - Reticle H - Eyepiece The stereo , stereoscopic or dissecting microscope is an optical microscope variant designed for low magnification observation of a sample, typically using light reflected from the surface of an ...

  4. Fluorescence microscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescence_microscope

    A fluorescence microscope is an optical microscope that uses fluorescence instead of, or in addition to, scattering, reflection, and attenuation or absorption, to study the properties of organic or inorganic substances.

  5. Optical microscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_microscope

    The optical microscope, also referred to as a light microscope, is a type of microscope that commonly uses visible light and a system of lenses to generate magnified images of small objects. Optical microscopes are the oldest design of microscope and were possibly invented in their present compound form in the 17th century.

  6. Fluorescence cross-correlation spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescence_cross...

    To perform fluorescence cross-correlation spectroscopy (FCCS), samples of interest are first labeled with fluorescent probes of different colours. The FCCS setup typically includes a confocal microscope, two laser sources, and two detectors. The confocal microscope is used to focus the laser beams and collect the fluorescence signals. The ...

  7. Fluorescence correlation spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescence_correlation...

    A basic diagram of a fluorescence correlation spectroscopy instrument. The typical FCS setup consists of a laser line (wavelengths ranging typically from 405–633 nm (), and from 690–1100 nm (pulsed)), which is reflected into a microscope objective by a dichroic mirror.

  8. Lattice light-sheet microscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lattice_light-sheet_microscopy

    This quality of the microscope is important for the dithered mode of operation, where the light sheet must be oscillated within the x axis. The lattice light-sheet microscope has two modes of operation: In the dithered mode, the light sheet is rapidly scanned along the x axis and only one image is recorded per Z plane, at normal diffraction ...

  9. Condenser (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condenser_(optics)

    A condenser between the stage and mirror of a vintage microscope. Condensers are located above the light source and under the sample in an upright microscope, and above the stage and below the light source in an inverted microscope. They act to gather light from the microscope's light source and concentrate it into a cone of light that ...
