Olympus IX-DPO100 DIC Prism – For IX Series Microscopes (Used)
The Olympus IX-DPO100 is a Differential Interference Contrast (DIC) prism designed for use with Olympus IX series inverted microscopes. This prism is optimized for 100x DIC objectives and is mounted in the nosepiece slider. When used with a matching polarizer and analyzer, it enables high-contrast imaging of transparent, unstained specimens by enhancing refractive index differences. It is an essential component for advanced DIC applications in live-cell imaging, developmental biology, and high-resolution phase optical studies.
