2.3 Use of LD objectives
When inverted microscopes are used for analyses, the bottom thickness of the vessels used differs
considerably from the standard cover slip thickness of 0.17 mm.
Normally, such distances are easily bridged by the working distances of lowĆpower objectives:
- CP Achromat 5x/0.12 FWD (in air) 10.8 mm or
- CP Achromat 10x/0.25 FWD (in air) 5.1 mm.
Already in the middle magnification range, however, these working distances are reduced to values
around or below 1 mm. Such objectives can then no longer be used for thicker bottoms.
This shortcoming is remedied by special LD
(Long Distance) objectives; these objectives
feature a relatively long working distance, but
also the normal 45 mm parfocalization length of
all other objectives.
For adaptation to the bottom thickness in use,
fit the corresponding cover glass cap (2Ć12ā/ā1)
onto the objective (see table below for assignĆ
ments).
