The Nikon DIC Prism 0.5 (Model DIC 0.5) is a specialized differential interference contrast prism designed for low-magnification imaging, typically in the sub-1x to 1x range. This component is ideal for enhancing contrast in wide-field observations of large, transparent specimens such as tissue sections, embryos, or organoids. Fully compatible with Nikon DIC-capable systems, it enables precise phase contrast enhancement even at the lowest magnifications.
