3.18 Using the λ Plate (D-LP)
Figure 3.18-1 λ plate slider
Attach the D-LP λ plate to the sextuple revolving
nosepiece (D-ND6) to perform sensitive color
polarization microscopy under the diascopic
illumination.
The D-LP λ plate is not required to use the TI-DIC λ
plate on the supporting pillar for dia-Illuminator 100W.

from the optical path
Two slots are provided on the front of the revolving
nosepiece. Insert the D-LP analyzer slider with the
nameplate facing down into the slot (with “λ”
indicated) near the objective. When it hits the second
click-stop position, the λ plate enters the optical path.
Pull out the slider, and when it hits the first click-stop
position the first red compensator is removed from
the optical path. The dummy hole then enters the
optical path.
