Leica TL RCI

Transmitted light stand with partial illumination technique with USB ports

Overview

The transmitted-light base TL RCI™ has two USB ports and two CAN bus interfaces. The brightness of the light source can be controlled via a USB mouse, for example. In combination with the motorized Leica stereomicroscopes and macroscopes, motorized focus and the Leica Application Suite (LAS) software, you are able to exercise full control via the computer over the zoom level, focusing, color temperature, brightness and shutter of the illumination. A large number of test series can thus be extracted from the Leica Application Suite (LAS) software and automated!

Detailed Description

Contrasting method for clear, transparent specimens
The Rottermann Contrast™ technique is a partial illumination technique that shows the changes of the refractive index as differences in brightness. Phase structures then typically appear as spatial, relief-type images – like hills in the positive relief-contrast and as indentations in inverted relief contrast.

Three filter slots for images in any situation
Three slots are provided for color filters in the transmitted-light bases TL RC™ and TL RCI™. These can be used for the filters that are available as an accessory, i.e. neutral gray, fluorescence filter BG38 and UV filter, or fitted with other filters as the customer wishes.
