How to Adapt Grain Size Analysis of Metallic Alloys to Your Needs
Metallic alloys, such as steel and aluminum, have an important role in a variety of industries, including automotive and transportation. In this report, the importance of grain size analysis for alloy…
How To Create EDOF (Extended Depth of Focus) Images
Watch this video to see how you can rapidly record sharp optical microscope images of samples with a large height variation. This is done with the optional Extended Depth of Focus (EDOF) function of…
Real Time Images of 3D Specimens with Sharp Contrast Free of Haze
THUNDER Imagers deliver in real time images of 3D specimens with sharp contrast, free of the haze or out-of-focus blur typical of widefield systems. They can even image clearly places deep inside a…
See the Structure with Microscopy - Know the Composition with Laser Spectroscopy
The advantages of a 2-in-1 materials analysis solution combining optical microscopy and laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) for simultaneous visual and chemical inspection are described in…
