Large area scanning microscope


MINOLTA DIGITAL CAMERA


  1. Overview
    Large area scanning microscope(EXPloratory microscope for Extensive aRea with Transmitted_light, EXPERT-G2)The microscope is an optical microscopy mechanism developed for the measurement and analysis of samples such as nuclear emulsion plates and glass substrates.


  2. Functions and Features
    • Large-area high-precision XY stage
      • Position resolution 1 μm     closed-loop
      • Stage stroke           400 x 400 mm
    • High precision Z stage
      • Piezoelectric drive can be added to stepping motor drive
    • Large-area high-rigidity transmission stage
    • Camera synchronous light source
      • Synchronized with shutter synchronization signal of CMOS camera (CMOS camera is optional)
      • Ultra-bright white LED does not emit heat rays or ultraviolet rays, so there is no damage to the sample.
    • Sample holder
      • A vacuum holder can be mounted to match the shape of the sample.

  3. Application fields
    • Detection of traces of elementary particles and nuclear reactions recorded on photographic dry plates.
    • Defect inspection of various patterns on photomasks, etc.
    • Inspection of culture conditions in cell culture cells
