  2. Lieberkühn reflector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lieberkühn_reflector

    The principle is explained for a modern upright compound microscope, where the light source illuminates the specimen from below. The light passes the object of interest laterally upwards. When using the Lieberkühn reflector, the opening in the microscope stage is covered with a flat glass plate upon which the specimen is placed.

  3. Catadioptric system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catadioptric_system

    Léon Foucault developed a catadioptric microscope in 1859 to counteract aberrations of using a lens to image objects at high power. [2] In 1876 a French engineer, A. Mangin, invented what has come to be called the Mangin mirror, a concave glass reflector with the silver surface on the rear side of the glass. The two surfaces of the reflector ...

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

    Two Leica oil immersion microscope objective lenses; left 100×, right 40×. The objective lens of a microscope is the one at the bottom near the sample. At its simplest, it is a very high-powered magnifying glass, with very short focal length. This is brought very close to the specimen being examined so that the light from the specimen comes ...

  5. Optical glass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_glass

    Optical glass refers to a quality of glass suitable for the manufacture of optical systems such as optical lenses, prisms or mirrors.Unlike window glass or crystal, whose formula is adapted to the desired aesthetic effect, optical glass contains additives designed to modify certain optical or mechanical properties of the glass: refractive index, dispersion, transmittance, thermal expansion and ...

  6. Kirkpatrick–Baez mirror - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kirkpatrick–Baez_mirror

    It is named after Paul Kirkpatrick and Albert Baez, the inventors of the X-ray microscope. [1] Although X-rays can be focused by compound refractive lenses, these also reduce the intensity of the beam and are therefore undesirable. KB mirrors, on the other hand, can focus beams to small spot sizes with minimal loss of intensity.

  7. Borosilicate glass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borosilicate_glass

    Borosilicate glass is a type of glass with silica and boron trioxide as the main glass-forming constituents. Borosilicate glasses are known for having very low coefficients of thermal expansion (≈3 × 10 −6 K −1 at 20 °C), making them more resistant to thermal shock than any other common glass.
