2D Birefringence Measurement System

PA Series PA-micro / PA-micro-S

This equipment measures birefringence and phase difference with a high resolution of 5 million pixels at high speed, for low phase difference with a measurement range of 0 to 130 nm.
Predict with FOV of microscope.
The included microscope can be selected from either Olympus or Nikon.

PA-micro-S is only a measurement camera head (Microscope not included).
Please contact us for a compatible microscope.
