Document Summary
The lens system under the microscope stage that focuses light onto the specimen. The thickness of a specimen that is entirely in focus under a microscope. Higher magnification has lower depth of focus. The lens of a microscope into which the viewer looks; same as the ocular lens. The area of the specimen that can be seen after it is magnified. An instrument that links a microscope to a spectrophotometer. The lower lens of a microscope, which is positioned directly over the specimen. Describes a microscope such that when an image is focused with one objective in position, the other objective can be rotated into place and the field will remain in focus. Light confined to a single plane of vibration. Light that is confined to a single plane of vibration is said to be plane- polarized. A device that permits the passage of light waves vibrating in only one plane.
