U-DICT: The background interference color is continuously variable between sensitive gray and
sensitive magenta.
U-DICTS:
U-DICTHC:
U-DICTHR:
@Rotate the prism control knob of the DIC slider to obtain the background interference color that can
achieve the maximum contrast according to the specimen under observation.
The background interference color is continuously variable between
black and dark gray.
}When observing sensitive colors, engage the U-UCDTP530 1-
plate (sensitive color
plate) in the light path.
· If the background color is black, darkfield-like observation can be performed.
· If the background color is gray, a 3D-like image with maximum contrast with gray sensitive gray can be
obtained.
· If the background color is sensitive magenta, even a minor optical retardation is observed as a color
change.
#Care should be taken to keep the specimen surface clean, as even a small amount of contamina-
tion on the surface may show up due to the exceptionally high sensitivity of the DIC method.
²As DIC exhibits directional sensitivity, the use of rotatable stage is recommended.
#To perform simultaneous reflected light fluorescence and transmitted light DIC observations, refer
to the instruction manual of the Reflected Light Fluorescence Attachment.
#When the PlanApoN60XO, UPlanSApo60XO, PlanApo60XO3 and U-DICTHC are combined (U-
DIC60HC or U-DPO60HC), color irregularities may be noticeable with certain specimens.
