3 Measurement
Move the section of the specimen to be measured
to
the center of the crosshairs of the eyepiece.
Next. slide the P-CQ quartz wedge along the slot
and observe that the interference color
sequentially changes. Stop sliding the quartz
wedge where the dark stripe covers the section of
the specimen to be measured. Reading the value
from the quartz wedge scale at that time can make
a rough measurement of retardation.
Retardation can be measured even more
accurately by using the P-CS Senarmont
compensator in combination with the P-CQ quartz
wedge.
3.
