Nomarski DIC system offers the choice of optimal resolution or

high contrast in live cell observation.

DIC

Differential Interference Contrast

Live cells specimens vary in thickness from from that of a nematode

worm such as C. elegans to a monolayer of cultured cells. The

requirements for DIC are also varied according to the specimen

from thinner cells being almost invisible to thicker specimens having

a lot of inherent contrast. Olympus provides three DIC systems with

varying amounts of shear. Small shear, high resolution sets are

excellent for thicker specimens. High contrast prism with twice the

normal shear are excellent for very thin specimens.

Long working distance universal condenser/IX2-LWUCD

Combining a long working distance (27 mm) and a high numerical

aperture (N.A. 0.55), the LWUCD condenser accommodates most

incubation chambers and T-Flasks. The 5-position turret provides

versatility with DIC or phase inserts. DIC components are specially

designed to obtain high-contrast, high-resolution images with 20X

and 40X objectives.

• New DIC system gives a wider choice

UIS2 expands the selection of DIC

applicable objectives. Each condenser

prism is compatible with more lenses

making setup and configuration easier.

lenses are available including the water

immersion IX2-TLW that offers 0.9 N.A.

with 3.7 mm of working distance and a 40°

approach angle for micro manipulations.

Condenser adapter/IX-ADUCD

This is the condenser adapter for upright

microscope condensers on the IX2,

including the 8-position turret condenser

(U-UCD8-2) for maximum system flexibility.

This combination allows the use of various

optional element with high N.A., just

rotating the smooth turret for switching

them easily. The IX2 illumination pillar also

offers a 'condenser-only' tilt mechanism to

quickly allow access to the

specimen without tilting

the entire illumination pillar.

Simple principle of Nomarski DIC

microscopy

Nomarski DIC amplifies contrast by using the

phase difference which occurs when light

passes through material with different

refraction or thickness value (e.g. a cell) in a

particular medium (e.g. water). The wave

direction of light from the microscope light

source is unified in a polarizer (condenser

side); and when it passes through the

condenser side DIC prism, it separates into

two beams which cross each other at right

angles. The distance of separation is called

the shearing amount. When two such

separated beams pass through a medium

with different refraction values (e.g. a cell), one

of them is delayed; and when the two beams

are re-composed by DIC prism (the observa-

tion side) and pass through the analyzer, the

interference effect produces the contrast.

This is the principle of Nomarski DIC.

Olympus has developed the most suitable

DIC prisms for different types of specimen,

based on the shearing amount. When DIC

contrast is low, the specimen is hard to

observe, while high contrast also hinders

observation because of excessive glare.

Olympus has therefore developed three

different types of DIC prisms to ensure clear

observation for every kind of specimen.
