When doing basic imaging, how do you determine the magnification an optical lens will provide?

Microscopes are used in a variety of fields and applications. To understand how resolving power, magnification, and other aspects work, read more at Edmund Optics.

To decide what imaging lens is right for a system, it is important to know the parameters of the imaging system used. Learn more at Edmund Optics.

Fixed magnification lenses typically function properly at a single working distance and are specified by their magnification. Learn more at Edmund Optics.

Large field of view telecentric imaging lenses allow for reduction of measurement and inspection time. Learn more about large FOV lenses at Edmund Optics.

Telecentric Lenses can grow quite large and heavy with small magnifications, as such magnifications require large front optics. Learn more at Edmund Optics.

Advances in Microscopy Tackle the Challenges of the Future

Mounting flat mirrors by their edges in a kinematic mount imparts stress onto the mirror surface. This results in distortion and reduced quality of the reflected wavefront, which is especially noticeable when using high-quality mirrors. Stemmed mirrors, on the other hand, are mounted from a smaller diameter “stem” protruding from the back of the mirror, resulting in significantly reduced stress on the mirror surface, high stability, and cost reduction and can be used as a replacement for a more expensive and complex kinematic mount and a conventional mirror.
