Key Features

• ‘Axio Observer combines the proven quality of ZEISS optics with automated components.
• Using dedicated software modules you can analyze, for example, non-metallic inclusions and grain sizes.
• Choose between three different levels of automation and motorization – Axio Observer 3 materials, Axio Observer 5 materials and Axio Observer 7 materials.
• Enjoy maximum homogeneity and a stray light free image background in brightfield and darkfield – disturbing stray light is minimized and color aberration is reduced.
• Investigate the samples with polarization contrast – using fixed analyzers, a measuring analyzer rotating through 360° and a rotating analyzer with rotating full-wave plate. Visualize bireflection and pleochroism on anisotropic samples even if no rotary stage is available.
• Take advantage of Circular Differential Interference Contrast (C-DIC), a polarization-optical technique which uses circularly polarized light.
